    Hello to all you quilters. I feel I have learned so much and yet feel as though I have only just begun. I am now 73 and recently joined a quilters group and their goal is to reach out to the needy. I have not tried hand quilting and just starting to try machine quilting. I love the way that while you are working on two or three quilts with a finish on your mind, Wow -I find myself already mentally planning that next quilt.

    Thank you Nana Pat for your compliment. This is a king size quilt and I do not know how to machine quilt yet so I tied it.
