I see you are from New Mexico. I was in Albuquerque in July of '09, I really loved it. I could easily be happy living there....well, maybe not, I would be so far away from my GS, but I would love to visit again.

I really do appreciate all your wonderful comments. I'm new to quilting and this is the first king quilt I have made for anyone. I have made smaller quilts such as throw and crib size, all this year. I'm glad I found out about the Quilting Board. It feels really good to feel like I'm good at something. I know you can't tell from the picture but I am 100% disabled. I have hip dysplasia (a birth defect I didn't find out about until 1997), Fibromyalgia,nerve damage in my neck and lower back, just to name a few. I'm in devastating pain most of the time and can barely walk. That's one reason I'm so proud of this quilt because I did it all on my every day machine. I can't afford a longarm, they are just to expensive. Thank you again. It was what I needed to hear.

I miss the green of NC but I don't miss the humidity. I tell my hubby that if I could live somewhere green without humidity, warm but not hot, no bugs (ticks, flies, that type), with mountains and an ocean, I'd be happy.
