Hi everyone! I have been visiting this site for about a year now and have loved the quilts posted and the information has been helpful since I am new to this craft. I wanted to post a few pictures of what I have completed. Two of my quilts were quilted by long arm machines-Ye Ole Quilters in Greensboro, NC and by Rosemary Cushman, Sanford, NC. Someday I hope to have a long-arm. Feel free to critique.

Welcome, Craftylady :)

I like what you did to showcase the princess. Was that applique or a print that you used? All three quilts are pretty.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

Welcome. Your quilts are lovely. I especially like the blue pinwheels.
We don't critique here. We praise and encourage each other. :lol:

Thanks for looking at my quilts. The princess was a panel and I just added borders. I did the quilt for my granddaughter that lives in Iowa. It was a surprise for her and when she saw it, she said, "Oh grandma, it that for me. I am a princess!" I think Rosemary did a great job on quilting. I told her to do a simple stippling, but she did more and it really added to the quilt.

Hi Crafty,

I to am new to quilting and have recently moved to Pinehurst, NC, just down the road from Sanford. Can you recommend any quilting classes and or shops in the area to help me?

You obviously have a natural talent for quilting. Love the quilts.

Hello from central Iowa. Your quilts look great, keep em coming! :D

craftylady 11-18-2009 03:46 PM

Hi sewgirl,

The only quilt shop that I know of in Moore County in Linderella's located near the hospital there in Pinehurst. As far as quilt classes go, I have taken several at N. C. Agriculture Extension Service,. There is a guild that meets there. At the last class it was said that the next class would be held in February as an intermediate class. You might want to check with the ag center in Carthage and see if they offer any classes. There is a fabric shop in Fayetteville that offers classes, but they are too far away for me to drive at night.

Craftylady, Your quilts are beautiful. Quilting is an art form, not a craft. Much goes into quilting besides the construction, such as design and color. Looks like you are right on. Keep up the good work.
