    Default Hello from Budapest!

    Hi Everyone!

    I'm an American ex-pat living in Budapest (for now!). I have finished three quilts and am excited to start #4. Budapest doesn't seem to have much of a quilting-scene, so I am looking forward to reading about your experiences, advice, and hopefully learn a few tricks!

    Until now my projects have been with second-hand materials and hand-quilting. I promised myself I wouldn't invest a lot of money in quilting until I could prove that I would keep it up. For my new project I am getting my first cutting mat and rotary cutter-- which I think will make me love it EVEN MORE!

    Thanks!
    Em

    Welcome from Ontario, Canada. Bonnie Hunter sometimes makes scrap quilts using recycled cotton shirt fabrics. She even has a video on how to de-bone a shirt. She has free patterns on her site http://www.quiltville.blogspot.ca
