Hi, I'm like you. I machine piece, but love to hand quilt. Have you ever kept track of how much time it actually takes you?

That is kind of ironic. My husband is actually trying to get on with Consol Energy. lol

That is funny LOL They are suppose to be hiring at different mines.

Good Luck to him :)

Hi everyone. I am a new member too. I joined a few days and this is my first time to write in. I looooove quilting - do it all the time. None of my friends or co-workers quilt so it will be nice to have someone to talk quilts with besides the lady who owns the local quilt shop!!

Hi, Longa. Glad you decided to join us. When I first started quilting, I didn't have anyone to enjoy the experience with, either. Now my daughter quilts, my granddaughter quilts, and I've made many new quilting friends through our local quilt guild. This is a great place to make friends and share ideas. Welcome aboard.

Welcome longa!

Hello, from Pensacola!

My family is from SW PA also. Greensburg. Lots of coal miners in the family tree. My grandmother was born in Wyano, a coal mining town.

Looking forward to seeing your work!

Hello I am new at this too. I am looking for a pattern of a coal miner but it is appliqued. I have not done all that many quilts but have done a few. I like to sew when I get a chance and have the room. Hope to see more of everyones work one day I hope to post something I have made. When I figure out how...
