I'm not new to actual hand quilting, but I am new to learning to piece and make quilt tops. As a child, I learned to hand quilt with my Mother on her quilts that were attached to a wooden quilting frame suspended from the ceiling. Now, at 53 I find myself with a new found passion to do my own quilting. I only wish I had learned how to piece and make the beautiful quilt tops.
Any help, tips, information any of you have are welcomed. I find it quite intimidating when I see all the patterns, and how difficult they appear.
I look forward to being a part of this site, and meeting new quilting friends...Tena :)

Welcome. I too live in E. Tennessee in the Knoxville area. A recent transplant from the ATL area. I did not get into quilting until my move and I love it. If you are in the Knoxville area (Powell, Halls, Clinton, Farragut) would love to find out what quilt shops you like.

What shops do you like in and around our area. Knoxville, Halls, Clinton, Powell, Farragut?
