Retired and living in Arizona, born and raised in Missouri. I am an amature quilter but I do enjoy it. Have made quilts for my eight nieces and nephews when they graduated from High School. Many baby quilts as well.

My Grandmothers Hankies. My Aunt passed and my cousin found our grandmothers handkerchiefs and asked if I would make a quilt. I hand quilted it since the hankies were so delicate.

A big welcome from Ireland - I love your hankie quilt too - it's a shame we hardly ever use them these days, you can't make a quilt from Kleenex, can you!
