Hi!

I stumbled across this board in my never ending quest to find people who quilt! Not professionals mind you - but people who love to quilt and will share the joys and tears this art brings.

I've sort of quilted for about 10 years. I'm not a great quilter, but I've learned that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. My family is thrilled with my quilts. My friends love it when I give one and to this day, no one has ever pointed out a mismatched seam etc.

I have been lurking reading posts for a bit. Finally got up my gumption to leap in and say a few things. Thought this would be a good time to say Howdy!

I have a DH who doesn't quilt, but LOVES to help me pick things and make decisions. He is pretty good at colors! I also have my ever present quilting companion, Caruso the Cat. Caruso believes that I quilt so that he has something to do. NOTHING is off limits in quilting as far as he is concerned. (I'm trying to figure out how to attach a picture of him and a quilt to my profile).

Thank you all for making this board so welcoming!

TTFN

Carrie
