Hello! I'm Alexis, I am from Oregon and I'm brand spankin' new to quilting. I've been resisting the urge for many years, but this past year we sold the tractor and my wonderful husband bought me a sewing machine with his profits. Wasn't that sweet?

I've joined a group from my church that will be sewing charity quilts. Our project is for hospice patients - something that is near and dear to my heart since I lost all four of my Grandparents over an 18 month time span that just ended this past year. I am looking forward to learning lots of things from this group!
