My name's Betsy, I live in Western Alaska. A good friend of mine's daughter had a baby and I decided to make a quilt, mostly out of scraps, with some odds and ends thrown in as well. The quilt itself was very colorful, as I love color, but it was all puckery, since I didn't have a proper walking foot. Anyways, I have since brought a new sewing machine with an array of feet, so, now I'm experimenting, and finding myself becoming very, very, obsessive with fabrics/quilting, etc. It's fun (so far) and one never knows how things will turn out. What inspires me a lot is looking a different quilting blogs such as yours and getting really inspired.

I searched through loads of quilting sites trying to find ones that help me, because alot of them only show the finished article.

We...I'd have frizzy hair to live where you are. We visited clearwater beach in 2006, it was wonderful.<br />My name is Tanya and I live in Wiltshire in the UK.<br />I mainly cross stitch, but am keen to have a go at quilting. My first quilt I did last year. It wasn't fantastic and I found it more work than pleasure at the time because I didn't really have a clue what I was doing. I like to have someone show me what I need to do, figuring it out myself usually means lots of stress.<br />Having said that I like the feeling of achieving something that looks good.<br />I'm going to have another go at quilting very soon.I love nature so my inspiration probably comes from that but I too like colour, and I love the huge variety of fabrics out there.Tanyastitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02636954919408661503noreply@blogger.com
