Hi everyone,
I'm Beverly from Tx. My mother n law and Aunt did quilting the old fashioned way with the quilting frame that hangs from the ceiling, so hubby built me a frame too. I have made four quilt tops and now need to learn to finish them. I have just been teaching myself but I have a friend who has done quilts for years and will help when she can as we live about 45 miles apart. I'm so frustrated but really love quilting. I'll be asking a lot of questions so bear with me!

Welcome and your husband is a keeper. I hope you love hand quilting. I do but it takes practice.

Glad you have some local support too. A second pair of eyes is always helpful. But the board members a angels and help out all the time.

Welcome. What I have found on the board is if they don't know the answer to your question there is always someone that knows where you can go to find it. A lot of helpful people here. :c)
