    Hi I'm Shana from Idaho. I'm new to quilting and have just recently finished my very first quilt. I did it all by hand. Worked on it for about 2 1/2 months off and on. It's a Halloween quilt, King size. I am working on another Halloween quilt right now and have promised to make 1 for each of my 4 children. I have a sewing machine but am not too good with it yet. I feel more comfortable sewing by hand. I hope to learn more with the machine though.
