Hi.. and welcome from NY
I wish I was more like my mom.. Even though she is not creative.. I take after my dad in that way.. My mom is awesome.. She is extremely kind, and thoughtful.. Every day I try to learn more from her.. I try to be as patient as she is.. I hope she will be around forever.. I feel like I never learned enough from my dad before he passed away at 84..

Hello, I am new to the quilting board and will tell you a little about myself through a story.
I was the baby of the family, was the last to leave home and was a little bit of a rebel.
As I made my way in the world, I made a vow that I would NEVER be like my mother!
Fast forward to me turning 40 and taking my first quilting class.
As I started down the Quilting path, I found I had more in common with my mother.
Now that I am past 50, I realize I am just like my mother except she does beautiful hand piecing that I don't seem to have time for.
Thanks for letting me share.

hand quilting the tops.
I feel like I got my sewing ability from my mom, but I don't think I'll ever be as good as she was. She told me not too long ago that she never had problems reading a pattern. I certainly don't have that gift!! lol
