Greetings. I am a newby quilter, but, have been enjoying reading the board for awhile. Finally, decided to get on board and introduce myself. First off, I'm a guy, so I hope that's OK. I haven't seen many fellows posting here, but, I'm sure there's a few around. I do Civil War re-enacting and carried a quilt made by my Grandmother on the back of my saddle until I realized that it was taking too much of a beating, and I didn't want to see it damaged. So, being a shop teacher, I'm pretty good with my hands and decided that I could probably make my own. I now have completed 13 Civil War Soldiers Cot Quilts. Most I've given away, but still have a couple hanging around. Any way, Hi, there from the Rocky Mountains.......

Hi and welcome to the board from Iowa. There are actually many men quilters and I am sure you will visit with them as well as all of the females. Here we are just quilters (smile).

Welcome! You will probably be surprised at the number of men on this board... There is a thread somewhere about all the men quilters showing off some of their quilts. They are amazing! Glad you're here and hope you enjoy yourself.
