Any Quilters on GC?
Here's something I'm interested in (besides badges): I've finally returned to quilting, after many years of not touching my Singer 221 (1957) Featherweight (it was my grandmother's, left to me when she passed). Have been astounded at the changes in the quilting world... the fabrics are incredible. I splurged on a Bernina (without the embroidery module, although I'm saving for that), and take my Featherweight to classes.
Love batiks; working on a sampler quilt right now with reds, purples and (gasp) yellows. Also working on an Amish-style quilt (all solids), Nancy Rink design - Amish with a Twist. Finishing up a bargello for a friend's birthday. Next up: a shabby chic cuddle-style raggy quilt for a certain GCer (if I can find the *right* fabrics).
Not brave enough to tackle any Judy Niemeyer designs yet but hope that next year I'll have enough confidence to tackle paper piecing.
Anyone else quilting around these parts?
