Hello, live in Iowa and taught myself to sew - so that I could make quilts, like my grandmother did. I have developed a real passion for quilting.

Welcome to the best board I have found. You will find so much helpful information here that it's unbelievable. Oh and the talent that is on here, also cannot be beat. There is always a helpful group of people that can answer any question you may have or if they don't know, suggest a link to get the information.

Hi, welcome from Minnesota, too! I also taught myself to sew with some really good hints and tips from #1 mother! I love to find what I did wrong and be able to correct them myself. Enjoy the board! Edie

I forgot to add that you can google quilterscache and there are fabulous patterns, all free, from A-Z or from 1" to 16+". I use all my patterns from them. The instructions are easy to understand, some are templates (they give you the pattern for that) some are paper piecing and they also stick pins in to let you know from easy to hard. I am in the process right now of finishing 15 block, 12" square quilt (each block different and as soon as I am done with that I am making a 48 block, 12" square quilt, and the blocks from the 15 block and the 48 block are all different in the 12" square. That's a lot of 12" blocks! I wanted to make a quilt with blocks I have never used before. Should be fun. Enjoy! Edie
