This weekend the ladies in my family got together to do some quilting. My grandmother is almost 93 and has accumulated quite a few scraps of flannelette from all her many projects. In order to clear out the surplus, we had a quilting bee at one of my aunt's house. I learned that my seamstress skills really haven't advanced much since the nightmare home ec project of 1985. I quickly stepped away from the scissors and all design work. I did find a job that I could do though! I settled into stitching the patter around the edge of the quilt and was hooked! I sat there all today & loved it. nice orderly stitches, one after the other, over and over, it was great!!!!!!!!
