I just started quilting about a year ago when I took the challenge of our pastor. My DW and friend taught our church's women to quilt and after they finished, their quilts were displayed in the sanctuary. After he praised all the ladies he challanged the men to see if anyone of us would do a quilt in the next class. I couldn't pass up the dare and being married to the teacher didn't hurt either!!

I come from a woodworking background so alot of the theory is similar but Janice has really helped with my color selection.

I just joined the forum last week and already I have learn a lot from just reading all the different questions and suggestions. Thanks for all the forth coming help in advance!

Glad you took the dare. I kid my dh all the time trying to get him to just sit at the machine. He totally refuses however we are woodworkers also and he sure likes that I do woodworking too. :)
