:D Well I should begin with a short explanation of our journey here.......
First of all my name is Michelle and my husband is Greg. I only tell you this because he quilts as well. I will be doing the posting, but he may have some questions as well. He began quilting after spinal fusion surgery. He had been in upholstery and he specialized in antiques. He handstitched almost all his work. To keep his skills up to par I suggested quilting. The rest is history........P.S.- The Dr.'s would not allow him to return to his job so he had to totally retrain. :(
I began quilting with our church group in Fla. nearly 10 years ago. I had some limited experience after that, but due to our move and LIFE we both lost our drive for quilting. Lately with our home slowly emptying out, we have begun to recapture our sewing room. :lol:
We will appreciate any help you all can give. We will most likely have questions about our various machines or new patterns. So be patient with the newbies please. Just call us Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum........

We welcome both you and Greg from NE CA. There's a lot of talented people on board and very helpful. I'm sure that if you have questions, there will be someone who can and will answer them. Just ask away, and we love pictures.
