    After 30 years of lugging my sewing machine around, I finally decided to get back into making quilts. I recently made four quilts and gave them away to my mother (she wanted plain blocks), my sister, my niece and my daughter. I have several ideas swimming around in my head with more quilt designs -- the problem will be finding the time to sit down and enjoy my newly-restored interest in making quilts. :) I made the quilt tops and the actual quilting was done by a long arm quilting service. Thanks for viewing my photos!
