When I joined the quilting group at work, it was just to support a friend. I made it very clear the first night that the closest I came to sewing was cross stitch.....I got cross every time I looked a needle in the eye! ROFL!

I'm SOOOOOOOOO excited!!!!!!!!!!!! :c) So should I go whole hog and enter it in the state fair? Whaddya think?
