Profile Information
- Tell us about yourself—as much or as little as you like.
- I've lived all over. My Dad worked for aircraft companies so we lived in Ohio, Florida, Missouri, Arizona and Oklahoma. When I left home I went to work for Northwest Airlines and lived in Virginia and worked in downtown DC. Then I Married a guy in the Navy and followed him around for 20 years. We lived in California, North Carolina, Texas, Iceland, Arizona, back to California, Japan, Spain, Washington and now Idaho. I started quilting in January 1984 when I took my first class at the local Joann's. Started machine quilting in 1991.Quilted for other people until 2016 when I decided to spend some time quilting for me to see if I could reduce my UFO pile. In 2011 I started selling Accuquilt products so have acquired a few dies and more UFO's. I need to live to be 300 to use up my stash and finish my UFO's. That last sentence sounds like a Quilter's Lament.

Thanks for the friend request. We can never have too many friends. I enjoyed browsing your pretty eye candy!
Welcome aboard, Anita! If you select the " forums" button along top of home page, see " navigating this site" written by Rogue...very helpful to new comers. And you might consider joining a group ie: longarm, hand quilters, scrappy quilts, embroidery, and there are many swaps. If you have ufo's to deal with, we even have a group for that...ufo group gives encouragement and support. Use the tab " groups" to see them all...not sure if there's a group for your state.
