Hey!

My name is Kim and I live on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. I haven't been quilting for very long (just 7 short months) and I LOVE IT!!!

Last year, I was surfing around on the internet trying to find a class or something to get me out of the house. I looked up the local craft stores and found a quilt shop about 20 min from my house. I signed up for the beginning quilting class and have been in love ever since. :-D

My DH has been very supportive which helps out a lot. I finished my first quilt last week which was a king size quilt consisting of 12" half square triangles for our bed. As with any hobby, I have started many projects. I have been trying to do something different for each project. This will hopefully give me a broad horizon and let me know what I do and don't like to do.
