Trying in Canada
 

Hello,

I've always LOVED the idea of quilting, and actually made one as a teen when I lived at home from scraps and old material my mom had hanging around. Basically I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it! made a lot of mistakes, but I finished the darned thing and still have it, though it's falling apart :)

I know I can do better, much better, so I've started a smaller quilt for my son, so that I can once again prove to myself that I can, and more then that, that I enjoy this art. After this one, the hope is that I'm comfortable and confident enough to do a much bigger one for our master bedroom!

I'll take all the help I can get, so far I'm completely self taught. My mother sews, but clothes, she never been interested in quilting. Thank goodness for the internet!

Welcome from Louisiana:) You will find that many of us are "self taught" however, I find that being active on the Quilting Board I am learning; another way, a better way, a faster way or that my way is right on target. It is your quilt and you enjoy doing it your way.....no rules, no police.....most of all enjoy the process:)
