Hello all, My name is Brandi and I am addicted to quilting. I have definatley been bitten by the quilting bug. So far I have only finished one basic patch quilt, made several purses. But have joined a quilting group where i have learned to love paper piecing, am taking several classes right now am working on lover's knot and applique and a log cabin table runner. I also signed up for a block of the month at my local scrapping store using thangles. If I could I would quilt all day unfortunatley I have a job and 2 children and don't have a whole lotta time to do it. But I love it all!

sdparent, I too have a scottie dog! His name is finny and we love him!
Just quilting, nice I would love to have a long arm... can't afford one, but am considering a quilting frame that lets u use your own machine. I am astounding by the cost of having your quilt quilted PHEW!

Hello and welcome from another Maine-er. I too have the quilting bug and wish I could quilt all the time but my life does not allow for it. I quilt when I can and learn a lot from this group. I am sure you will like it here.
