    I'm new here. I'm just starting to get back into quilting. Several years ago my grandmother started to teach me how to quilt. We started a lovely crib quilt together, but she unfortunately passed away before we could finish it, she only taught me how to assemble the top. I recently found the quilt top when I was unpacking some boxes I left at my parents place and have decided it's time to finish it. I also plan on carrying on my grandmother's tradition of giving a crib quilt to all her grandchildren and great grandchildren (for me it would be for all my new cousins and their children). I'm starting a quilting class in a few weeks and I'm super excited!

    Hi and welcome from the sunny state of Florida!! I'm glad that you want to quilt again and finish the baby quilt. It's a great tradition to continue giving baby quilts to new family members!!

    Where in MB do you live? I grew up outside Swift Current, but live outside Toronto. My boys and I take VIA accross country every summer, so we are in Winnepeg at least twice a year.

    Are you guys getting snow too???

    Welcome to the boards.
