Intoduction
Hello,
I have been a lurker here for awile. I am not so good at writting everyday, or week for that matter lol. I am a full time university student, and a single mom with 4 kids so email is usually the last thing on my mind to be writing. I started making quilts for my son's in 2003. Poor guys drown in blankets at nice But they have varied tatsed that can not be satisfied by stores alone so... I started making them myself. I may be able to find a pic or somewhere and will post later. My oldest son (9yrs) alos made his own quilt. A rail fence. My there kids are a 9yr boy and a 7 yr boy and a 2 yr girl. I live in BC Canada atm. Thanks to school my UFO box is filling up as well as the ideads in my head. But I get a month off in August I really suck at the actually quilting part so Iam going to learn that in august I think. I just sew in the ditch or a "x" across the squares right now. but the free motion quilting is what I would actually like to be able to do. Only 1 month 10 day left Thats all for now ttyl Carissa (remove the dot in my email) |

Welcome, Carissa.
There are several children of Mum's on here who have made their own quilts. We'll have to have a junior section soon gg It will be a lovely idea to develop your quilting skills. Once you have the basics, you'll be able to practice and improve by yourself. .. In message LwXse.1726524$Xk.733447@pd7tw3no, Carissa writes Hello, I have been a lurker here for awile.
