Hello everyone! I've been stalking for a few years but just realized over the last few weeks that I am missing out on "groups" by not finally joining. I discovered precuts a few years ago, then MSQC tutorials, and finally forums! I am not a prolific sewer as I work full time plus overtime on night shift, have 5+ kids, several dogs, cats, and other critters as well as assist with parents and inlaws when I have a spare minute. If I am lucky, I can manage 8 tops a year (mostly crib size) and have a pile waiting for time to get them quilted. I've just started to learn LA quilting on my mother's old no frills quilter, and have yet to try to quilt a project on my home sewing machine. As my kids have grown older and begin to fly the coop, I was invited to take over an empty bedroom to restart my quilting hobby that had been put away due to lack of space nearly 20 years ago. Wow have things changed since then!!!
When I started to set up my own personal sewing space, I discovered that tubs and bins of 20+ year old fabric and several UFOs were still in storage. Discovering all that yardage, unfortunately, has not curbed my fabric acquisition, and I promised myself that I would make it a goal for 2018 to only purchase NECESSARY fabric, but that definition has become fluid! lol It has been fun following everyone's projects over the last several years and I've stolen several ideas!
Thank you Everyone!
