1.) Board name/real first name: KathyM - Kathy
2.) How long have you been quilting - bought my first sewing machine at the age of 13 from babysitting money from that summer, now I'll be 59
3.) Favorite quilting tool: they have come up with sooo many new gadgets, rotary cutter & mat
4.) Favorite quilt you have made & why: I have made several Grandmother's Garden with the hexies, I do enjoy hand sewing, I usually don't like making a pattern twice.
5.) Favorite color: I seem to go for the darker colors, if you look at my stash you don't find many lights.
6.) Favorite flower: anything that blooms
7.) Best advice you can give: enjoy your project or you won't like it when it's done
Kathy thanks for the introduction!

I would love to see a picture of the grandmother's garden quilt. I started making one over 5 years ago and need the inspiration to return to that project! Also need to see how you finished off the edge and how you quilted it.
