I am from Central Indiana and look forward to visiting this board often. I worked in the sewing industry for several years, and for most of my life I have enjoyed sewing.
My earliest memory of sewing something was a tablecloth for 4-H that I cut, hemmed & hand embroidered. I was about 8-9 at the time and the machine that my Mom had was a Singer Treadle machine. I made a lot of clothes on that machine and Mom made a lot of quilts. I grew up learning how to put scraps of fabrics (flour-sacks, too) to use to make pretty quilts that kept us warm in the winter. In SD we needed the warmth.
I got away from sewing about 20 years ago and have just started again. I finished a quilt for my granddaughter's 2nd birthday. I look forward to getting to know you all & the projects that you are working on.

Beautiful baby quilt. Aren't grandchildren the best? Our Zoe is 15 months and growing like a weed. What part of SD? I grew up on a farm near Yankton, 65 miles from Sioux Falls, SD and Sioux City, IA, still have lots of relatives in SD, IA, NE and KS. Now we live in Lowell, MA, moved here last year from NH, but I still miss the country.
