I have been sewing, mostly garments, since I was a young girl and along the way made a baby quilt which I hand quilted but didn't really get into quilting until about 10 years ago when I took a class. I sew nearly every day now that I'm retired but am always learning something new. For me the enjoyment comes in always challenging myself to try a new technique or become better at something rather than to see how many quilts I can get done. While I enjoy the finished product it's getting there that's the real prize for me. I have learned so much from this site. I start my morning every day by reading the daily digest. What wonderful people are on here!
