Began in 2000. It has been a thread of consistancy with so many moves - my stuff (the visual and touch of fabric and projects) remains familiar when dear friends are left behind.

Got married in fall of 1963 and started working on my first quilt that Dec. so it's been 47 years off an on - had an awful lot of learning to do. My avatar is the completion of that first ever quilt and it took me 38 years to complete. Why? Because the first result was so hideous that I put it into the cedar chest and vowed to do a whole lof of learning before completing. When our daughter (2nd child) married at the age of 28 it came out of the cedar chest to store her wedding gown. Thinking I'd learned enough to finally complete this quilt I took it out, tore it all apart (it was 1/2 machine quited and the ugliest quilt on the planet) and totally redesigned the quilt. It was completed just before our 38th wedding anniversary - hence the title 38 year quilt. Over the years I've complete a lot of quilts and am now hand quilter but once again trying to learn machine quilting. My current style is hand piece, machine AND hand quilting. I also do quilt as you go working in panels. Will share my current quilt in about 4 weeks when it is completed. I've posted a few things including info about this 38 year quilt and believe you can find them if you click on my user name.

I quilted when I was quite young with my grandmother helping, but didn't really begin my quilting until 1980 - 31 years ago. Since then it has been amazing with technology and all of the innovations in techniques. We were just beginning to see the mats and rotary cutters where we lived in rural Maryland when I began quilting again. 31 years - 1980.

Have been sewing for 38 years.....quilting for about 15 years. My first quilted piece was with 1-1/2" squares (pic below) and it's a miracle I continued after that! I had wanted to try all types of quilting to see what I liked best and picked that first because, after all, all I had to do was cut small squares and sew them together.....lmao. What a learning experience.
