Hi.. My name is bob and my wife got me interested in quilting. I used to have a model railroad museum that was open to the public. That and outdoor activities was my interest. I was getting bored with the train museum and saw that the quilting was very interesting and creative and changes all the time and there is always more to learn. So being very comfortable with my self I felt id like to give it a try. Well I am on my fourth quilt now and like it alot. My wife is getting tired of her job and I am retired. I retired early and so we found a great place to open a quilt shop and we are in the middle of doing that. What a fun hobby and creative. I have one more quilt to do and then I am going to try a black and white lone star. well that's my story and I am sticking to it.

My secound Quilt for grand daughter.
