Hi,
Your story sounds much like mine. I made a couple of quilts by hand about 40 years ago and am just getting back to quilting again. I am learning the free motion quilting by watching videos and then making sandwiches of scraps and batting to practice on. One of those things you just have to jump in there and do and then learn as you go...kind of like learning to ride a bike! Enjoy!

Welcome from East Tennessee, and you will love this board. I always look forward to coming here. Everyone is so nice, and very helpful, and very talented. I have learned so much here, and I have a lot to learn. I look forward to learning all I can here, and they give so many nice links.

Welcome from Delaware. I haven't done much machine quilting yet, but really got turned on by a site someone here gave a link to - it was a bunch of video tutorials of free machine quilting patterns by Leah Day. You might want to check it out via search here or google it. It was terrific.
