New to this board, just today! I've been quilting for at least 15 years, although I have to say, I probably haven't been as productive as I could have given the amount of stash that I have! I am just starting to try some applique, hand, machine and fusible. I've more or less avoided it until now. I am definitely NOT a paper-piecer although I have to figure it out so that I can make the two patterns I MUST do. Maybe by then, I will like it. I am definitely geared more towards traditional patterns with Drunkard's Path being my favorite. Hope to meet up with some of you on here.

BTW, my Avatar is the Tree Top Vikings Quilt (Vikings fabric in the sashing). It is for my BIL and includes deer fabric for the border because he is a hunter.

Welcome on board from a transplanted MN girl that has been in Alaska the past 25 years. You will love this site. Lots of great people with tons of helpful tips, ideas, exchanges and recipes! Just to name a few. Love the Vikings quilt!
