Hello:
I am a very new quilter.....took a beginner class in Oct 2008....so I have LOTS to learn. I have wanted to learn to quilt ever since a friend gave me a quilt when my first son was born....he is now 28...so it's been awhile. Although I have only been at this a very short time I can understand totally how addicting this is!!
I am currently working on two baby quilts for a niece who is expecting twins.
I look forward to meeting all of you and learning as I go. This looks like a wonderful resource for someone who has alot to learn and it is nice to have somewhere to voice the addictive tendencies.....my non quilting friends are starting to look at me a little strangely....LOL
