Twenty years ago I took an 'adult education' quilting course. Without additional help I made three quilts, three sets of nursery curtains, two Christmas tree skirts and a wall hanging. (I now know that they were loaded with mistakes that folks like you could have helped me avoid!). Fifteen years ago I started my fourth quilt and when I started quilting it I ran into a wall! I was working full time and I was frustrated. I tucked it, and all my quilting supplies away. I stich all my quilts pieces by hand and then hand quilt them myself so I have lots of room for error!

Welcome from Kansas

Thank you for the welcomes! The lady who conducted the quilting class I took didn't have the time to say much so I guess that's why so much of what I read here is all new to me. My first question is, in the most recent Message Board there is reference to making your own starch. I assume that this to stiffen the fabric. Why?
