I'm Quilting with Convicts, a.k.a. Kathy. I run a large quilting progran for male inmates at a privately owned state prison in New Mexico. I will be posting information about the program elswhere. I have pictures and a complete description.

I love to paper piece and am trying to finish a Dear Jane quilt that I started in 1997. It's all hand pieced & appliqued. I'only have about 25 blocks left to go, and then the triangles that form the border.

I have really been enjoying all the interesting chat going on here. Does any one know about how many of us there are here?

14,239 members is what it says on home page. Welcome. Quilting with convicts sounds very interesting. Be sure and post pics of your finished quilt if you are able. Glad u joined us.

a warm welcome from KY, wonderful work you are doing
