I would like to introduce myself - I'm Karen from http://karensquilting.com/blog/ I am a hand quilter and do my piecing by hand and with my old time sewing machine a featherweight 221. I do NO machine quilting just by hand.

I live in Arkansas and have for about 30 years now before that quite a few places.

I have noticed quite a few people coming from this quilting board to look at my blog and several tutorials that I made - how to make circles being one and the other was lumpless binding. I'm sure glad to see people using those tutorials. If anyone has other tutorials they would like to see let me know.

Feel free to leave comments on my blog to let me know if there is any topic you would like for me to discuss.

I'm looking forward to looking through the quilting board and see what is on here! -- Karen

Hi Karen, It's me, Karen (Mike's wife also) in NC, your faithful reader. Good to see you on the Board. Isn't this a great site to come to? So many good ideas and helpful hints. I just realized when I read your introduction that I have not introduced myself yet. Maybe I had better go do so.

how funny hi Karen - I did not know you were on here too. I just found it the other day but do not know how much I will be on here, it takes so much time away from quilting.

Welcome from NC! I use to do all hand sewing but there are just too many quilts I want to do. I have a king size flower garden done all by hand. It's a charm where I used a piece of material from each of my materials and the ones from my mil's colection that I inherited. Cutting the freezer paper took me as long as anything!
