Looks like I might be the newest newby. I have only been quilting for 3 months. I have completed 4 small quilts approximately 54"x60" on the machine.
My wife got me started. She has been quilting for about 40 years now. Originally she hand quilted, but in the last year has converted to machine quilting.
Wish I would have started earlier, I really enjoy quilting and find it a great way the relax.
