Hello - I'm from Northern Virginia. I made my first quilt when Granddaughter #3 was born; waited another 10 years and made one for Granddaughter #4's first b'day. Haven't stopped since! I love it all -- piecing, applique, hand quilting, hand embroidery, etc. I am beginning to venture out and try to go beyond stitch-in-the-ditch machine quilting. I'm overwhelmed by meandering! Have a wonderful sewing room, lots of stash, patterns, notions, and ideas, but most of all a wonderful husband who encourages me to be creative and enjoy my hobby. I'm retired and have many sewing friends who share my interests. I'm simply blessed beyond words!

Welcome from Missouri

Sounds like a dream world. Glad you have your friends and husband to encourage you. Hope you enjoy the board and come often. I am new here too, but already love this place, hope you do too.

Did you make the quilt in your photo? Very cute. My grandkids are mostly grown up now so I am beginning to make bigger, more modern quilts. But I miss those cute kid quilts I made when they were little!
