Marthe:
Thanks for your note. Truly being a beginner here...I will have to work diligently!
Umm my sewing skills are from that time - I had fond memories and fun in my Home Econ class. Know the basics, have sew a little bit since then, nothing really involved. The past few years mostly the merit badges on and patches onto my son's boy scout uniforms. Haven't really "sewn" in a long time. So I am biting of a lot starting to quilt. It is something I have always wanted to do and haven't had the time. Kids are grown soooo now have the time.
Thanks again!
