    I joined this forum a while ago, but only just got around to posting.

    I learned to quilt (by hand) back in about 1980, but I haven't really done much of it. One large quilt and a few small ones. I have some more traditional quilts planned, but what brought me back to it was seeing the art quilts and mixed media and needlework art and also crazy quilts. I've been working on an art quilt for my sister every night in my head as I fall asleep. Now I hope I can execute the real thing to look as good as it looks in my head.

    If I figured it out correctly, there are 2 photos. Both are far from perfect, but still warm and comfy and generally pleasing to my eyes (and my family's).
