Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I am a new quilter and loving it! I never even sewed as a child so this has been an adventure for me. I took my first quilt class a year and a half ago at my local quilt shop and I've been learning every since.

I have taken several classes through our quilt shop (log cabin, underground railroad, jewel box). My biggest challenge is finishing something! I just love playing with the fabric colors and patterns!! :)

I'm a bit obsessive and I want everything to be "perfect" which causes me to rip out a lot. My teacher says unless you can see a mistake from 10 feet away on a galloping horse, it's not a problem. I wish I could adopt that idea but I still want every point to look perfect. LOL!

I live in North Carolina with my husband and two fur babies, a cat and a dog.

I look forward to learning from you all on the quilting adventure.

Sounds to me like you definately have the quilt bug.... it can really take hold of you. I too have only quilted over a year since my first class. My fabric stash looks like I've been quilting for at least 10!

Welcome from Colorado! My parents live in Greensboro :) I grew up there ;)I make it back once in a while!

Well, gals it sounds like we have the makings of a Greensboro get together some time soon. Big ole tarheel welcome.

Hi, from NW Kansas. Good to have you on the board. I have to agree with your quilting instructor. If you can't see if from 10 feet away, don't worry about it.
