Another Quilting Day - 3/29/2011

It's Tuesday and I am about to enter "The Purple Room". This is where I quilt day in and day out. I love the creative process and love, love, love material. I have at any point, 3 quilts I am working on, and at least 25 quilts that are ready to sell or give away to those I love. I am a wife, mother of 6 daughters, and grandmother of 15, almost 16, wonderful grandkids. I love them all dearly. Each one has at least 2 quilts made by grandma. One for sure when they were born and one whenever they need a new and bigger size. I have a large quilting room upstairs in my home with awesome views of the backyard and the mountains. I am well-entertained there. I started sewing when I was 10 years old on an old Singer treadle machine that belonged to my girlfriend's mother. We had so much fun making doll clothes & blankets for our dolls and creating other items too. Sewing has always been my first craft love. I sewed for my 6 girls all the time. When they got older I made their prom or dance dresses. When they got married I made their wedding gowns. When they all left home I wondered what I was going to sew. Then I found quilting, and now I am an addict, having made more than 250 quilts in the last 12 years. Need a quilt, just leave me a comment and I am sure I can accommodate you.
