I started in 1998 and have been loving it since! Right now, I do everything by hand - quite tedious, but it's worth it. As of May 18, 2000 I have finished 5 quilts (three of which are "Trip Around the World). I?m also currently working on a "Grandmother?s Garden" (queen size), "Carolina Lily" (king-size), two Christmas quilts, and one "Block Of The Month" quilt among many other projects. My goal is to have at least one quilt for every room in my house (future house that is, since I?m living in a one-bedroom apartment with my husband).
