Hi all,

I'm an artist, traveler and greyhound lover. I've quilted off and on for years, but have spent the last five years living/traveling in my RV, with little space for quilting. I'm in the process of settling down again, and hope to delve into my fabric stash any day now.

My mom has a great quilt guild that I'll probably join.

I also paint and do abstract photography, and most of my quilting is an extension of that kind of "vision."

I look forward to getting to know y'all.

Hi everyone

I am not new to quilting just to this chat room. I have quilted for about ten years but just in the last few years -after I retired- have had more time to sew. Today I made 7 napkins which are a lined semi circle, then after they are pressed and folded they look like christmas trees. They aren't hard but you have to remember how to fold them just so.

I like the more traditional quilts and like most all colors except brown and orange in big pieces.

I have 4 adult children, and 10 grandchildren from the age of 25 to 4. I have made quilts for all the kids and about half of the grandchildren. I have been widowed twice so I have swore off men!
