New to quilting here. My grandmother was the quilter of the family. Our rock and probably the sweetest, bravest, kindest, caring, most awesome person I will ever in my life have the chance to know. And she made what we call "Nanny quilts". Most kids get excited when they get toys...not us. We wanted Nanny quilts! Made every which way, every color imaginable and the most comfortable soft warm blankets to cuddle with. But sadly last April, after a 20 year battle with cancer, and I mean she put up a FIGHT, she finally went home. So, with every stitch, every cut and every quilt I make, I think of her and I know how proud of me she is. And she probably gets a good laugh every now and then watching me argue with the sewing machine!It is hard not having her here to help me. The first quilt I made was the hardest. Tears just walking around the store, trying to figure things out.
But I am learning and growing. And the tutorials here are amazing! Jenny, I followed you step by step, and have completed two more quilts! And I am so grateful to have found this place!
Thank you so much!!!
