I've been quilting for about 3 years now. I did a little sewing here and there before, but I think I always knew I was destined to become a quilter from the first time I sat down in front of a Bernina in Home Economics. I've made 4 baby quilts, 3 queen size quilts and 15 or so quilted table runners (I decided to make them for EVERYONE a few years ago for Christmas--that wasn't crazy at all!) And I hate fleece. Hate it. It's taking up more and more space at the fabric store. My lovely quilting fabrics take up less and less as a result. If people want to do simple little cut and knot blankets, that's...their business. But it is a quick craft. Quilting is an art and it should not be minimized to make way for a quick craft. Can you tell I'm a little unhappy about the lack of variety of suitable quilting fabric? I knew you'd understand! Anyhoo, I have 1 husband, 2 kitties, and I'm currently working on a Jane Austen-style quilt. With my own spin on it, of course. Looking forward to spending way too much time on here! Rebecca I am up in Enid, Oklahoma and I thought I was the person on the planet that hates fleece..and minky....and if you think it is filling up the stores..you should see what it is doing to our landfills.... I am hosting a small retreat NEXT weekend up here in Enid...I have 2 spots left... here is the general info! http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-142121-1.htm |

Hi Rebecca...
Welcome from Edmond, OK :D |
Welcome from Central California.... enjoy!!
But beware, you may find yourself on the board more than Quilting :) !! Many have a strong opinion of the Quilt Police... We know have many levels of quilters here, with a fondness/obsession ;) of the same craft. A lot of fun folks !! |
