When you live out like we do, you find something to do. So I thought, self these quilt tops needs something done with them, so self has gone into quilting, at the ripe age of 60. :roll: :roll:

Welcome from Hurley, NY - I was a self starter on quilting and have been enjoying it for the last 15 years. The board here is a great help in getting questions answered and help when you get stuck. ( I just finished machine quilting my 1st quilt with the boards help with machine settings. Can't wait to get the binding finished so I can post pics.)
