Newbie!
 

Hi all I am not new to sewing but VERY new to quilting. I am in the process of teaching myself with the help of you tube and now this forum. I am putting the borders on my first quilt that is a Bargello (Melinda's Heart) I am 64, a retired nurse and happy to now have time for this. I would LOVE to be "adopted" by a veteran quilter! I live in Blackfoot, Idaho and my other hobby is raising chickens.

Welcome from Gilbert, AZ. I know you will love the resources and wonderful people here on the board. (I'm fairly new myself and it has been an easy transition!)
