It is interesting to read about your quilting experience over the years. You have much more experience than I do. I've only been quilting for about a year and a half. I have never done any hand work and have no desire to. All my work is done on my machine. I've read stories about the Amish getting together to quilt and it sounds like you have had a similar experience. I love your "perfect mistakes". Now I have a name for mine!

This is exactly my first memory of quilting, as well. My grandmother had frames which were let down from the ceiling with her, her daughters, and her daughters-in-law around the frame quilting. Most of the quilts were utility quilts and stitches were different from person to person, but they did keep us warm in the wintertime! I have no notion of going back to the "good ol' days", but this is definitely a pleasant memory.
