Hello from Pennsylvania
Hello fellow quilters. I've been sewing about 20 yrs, but my 1st project was a table runner that I quilted & loved it.
I've made a T-shirt quilt for my youngest son & had a ball. From there, I sewed several projects & for the last 3 years have been hand quilting my quilts. Currently am quilting with a bunch of sweet ladies at our local church, my Eleanor Burn's Underground Railroad Quilt is in a frame there. I'm 1/2 way done with it. I also sewed Eleanor Burns El's Kitchen quilt (my 1st top) and since it is 96 " square am patiently waiting for a frame at another local church.
I'm also working on Eleanor Burn's Victory Quilt - I'm still working for on blocks.
I started another T-shirt quilt for my oldest son & am at an standstill, I just can't get motivated to work on it again.

Welcome aboard! I am another very new member. I have a dear friend that lives in Dallas, PA, and I spent a summer in Carlisle when my dad was in the War College back in the 70s. Another non-quilting friend in Philly. All of those I think are in opposite corners from where you are.
Grats on the hand work, not my strong suit at all!

Welcome from Arizona!
Not to worry, you will get your mojo back.........start with a timer and set it for 20 minutes, you will soon be at it again!
Thanks for sharing your history. Wish I could hand quilt, but tried it once, nearly dislocated my body parts. LOL
