MY CRAFTS
QUILTS
I began quilting in the spring of 1985. After years
of wanting to learn to quilt, I found an evening
class for beginners. My first quilt was a dresden
plate on white background with blue sashing and
borders. It is the only class I have taken, so my quilts
are fairly basic and I have much to learn. I am
trying to gather up several that were given as gifts
to photograph for this site, and they will be added
as time goes on.

nights
