Hi all,
I am just getting started with the newsletter and all and am having fun trying to navigate the site and see all the neat things going on. I am an avid quilter and am just getting started on my own personal challenge quilt. It will be a full size applique of a native american Lakota Chief in a full double war bonnet. The research has taken forever, but I think I am ready to start. (Kind of scary). I want to use hand dyed fabrics, and embellish with all kinds of goodies. Wish me luck. I will probably be asking for all sorts of advice and help.

Shemjo,
No pics yet for the quilt, it is still in the planning stages. I am in the mountains in California, very near Yosemite National Park. Get a lot of inspiration from Mother Nature here. Hope to make a lot of new friends on this site. Spend way too much time alone not to have quilters to chat with. lol

shemjo,
I just realized that you are from St. Louis. I grew up in Overland, and my husband is from New Athens, Ill. I still have family in Bellville, Il, and some in St. Charles. Looks like we have a bit in common. How fun
