Hello from Iowa !
 

Good day! My name is Patty and I would like to introduce myself to all you fellow quilters. I live in central Iowa where my husband and I farm. My passion, though, is quilting. Right now I am handstitching a little crib quilt for our expected grandchild who is due in December.....gotta start early you know, when you stitch by hand. This is my first quilt using a Grace Quilting Frame, which has been a real experience in itself! I am looking forward to meeting all of you and learning about your projects. :)

Good morning from northwest Iowa, where the corn is tasseled and the days are full of sunshine. What pattern are you using for the baby quilt? The baby quilt I made for our first child started me on a long running hobby, and that child is now sixty, as of tomorrow.
