    Hi! My name is Melissa and I've been quilting now for about 8 years or so.

    My husband and I live in Wisconsin and we have a 1 1/2 year old son, and another son due in April!

    I don't have any other quilty friends, and I'd love to learn new things and meet other quilters.

    Karen, yes I did make the quilt in my avitar. But I have to admit it's just the top. For some reason I love making the tops, but I am terrible at finishing them up.

    I'll post more of my projects in the picture board.

    Hi Melissa & welcome - where in Wisconsin? There are 19 Wisconsin quilters on the board that I know of. Maybe we can find you a quilting friend close by who could help you get those quilt tops done!! Can't wait to see more.

    Hi Melissa,
    Welcome to this site from another Wisconsin quilter. Are you staying warm?? We just reached -1 for the high today. A good time to wrap up in one of your quilts. I just can't imagine what it will feel like tomorrow sitting out at the Packer game.

    Are you going to the game? I'll be covered up with a quilt watching from my living room. :) If you're going, stay warm!
