Quiltingboard Forums - Hello from the Salt Lake Valley

I am a great grandmother. I learned to quilt in Relief Society (the women's organization of the Mormon church) when I was about 19. This internet business was quite a learning experience since my generation did not grow up with computers and social media and all those electronic gadgets.

I love the creative quality of quilting and the freedom of using a pattern or kit or designing my own pattern. I have learned so much about fabric quality, quilting tools and accessories, and how to use the internet for business. I am excited to learn more from all you and maybe helping others.

My husband and I have a blended family of 8 grown kids with over 30 grandchildren and great grandchildren. We live quietly in a modest home in West Valley, Utah. I love to garden, read, crochet, quilt and yes, watch tv. We are Christians and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the Mormons).

Thank you for allowing me to take part in this forum. I look forward to reading your posts.
