Hello everyone, a quilting/sewing newbie from California here. I got my own sewing machine about a year ago and started stashing magazines, fabrics, notions and tools ever since. I started off as a knitter 5 years ago and really love making sampler afghans ... so it is no surprise that I love patchwork.
I've made some small projects like bags and coasters. But I just finished my first full-size quilt yesterday! Very very very excited!
Very happy to find this quilters' community as I had quite some questions during the process of making my quilt. Hope to learn a lot and meet a lot other quilters here. :-)

Hi Agnes, Welcome to our fun quilting board. I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. So many talented quilters & ideas to inspire!!! It felt like sunny CA here in Oregon today. I think we got up into the low 90's. Share some of your quilts as you finish them. We would love to see your work. :D

Welcome and Hafa Adai from Guam!
I love your avatar. It's too cute!
Funny...my dad called my mom Agnes as a nickname. No clue how he got that name for her as her REAL name is Olive. Figure that one out. lol
So, when I saw your name, it just reminded me of my mom :)
