    Default New from Grand Prairie, TX

    I have always wanted to make a hand stitch quilt. While visiting Kerrville I found a quilt shop "Creations". I walked in and was totally overwhelmed. I had no idea where to start. Anne who works there took me by the hand and got me everything I needed to start. Well, I have the top completed and I am now quilting by hand. It's taken awhile (about a month) but I am on my way. I have so many ideas I don't know where to start.

    I live in El Paso and only get to shop at Creations in Kerrville once in a blue moon, but that is a fantastic store! If you have only been at your project one month, you are doing very well. Some folks take years! Good for you!

    Welcome from Ontario, Canada. I like to hand quilt but I don't do much of it anymore. Too many quilt patterns I want to do so I am working on my machine quilting skills.
