Hi! I live in beautiful southern Maine about .8 miles from the ocean. I've been quilting for a lot of years, but haven't progressed as far as I would like. I think I'm too much a perfectionist and tend to get stuck on a piece for a very long time.

I belong to two guilds and sew charity quilts for Wrap A Smile, which is a charity that send quilts over seas for those children having Rhinoplasty.

Hi Patty - Welcome to the group! I was in Maine this past fall - Portland and Bar Harbor (cruise). It was beautiful! Have always wanted to get to the NE coast! This really is a pretty fun group - lots of pages to check out and lots of very nice folk here. If you are having a problem with a particular thing, looking for something whatever - you can post and get help. We always ask folk to post the items they are doing or have finished. We llove to see what others have going. :wink:
