Hello all,
I actually haven't tried quilting yet buy I am getting ready and studying to start on the right foot and with the right tools.
I worked in a shirt factory for almost 15 years so I had lost my interest in sewing and abandonned my machines for many years using them mostly for repairs.
I have seen so many beautiful quilts that I think I am ready now to start using my machines again and have fun doing it.
I have been doing some scrollsawing these past years and it is similar to do embroidery except it is on wood.

Looking forward to read your posts and I will show you my first quilt as soon as I finish one hahaha
Until then, I will learn from all of you and enjoy your beaytiful work

Cheers,
Lise

Not IN the lighthouse as ours is a squelettin type but our house is appx. 20 feet from it ;-)
But in the old days our house WAS the lighthouse until they discovered all about the mercury poisonning dangers so they build another tower and put the lamp on it.
