I am retired, as you can tell from my blogname! I started quilting almost 2 years ago and took classes at my local quilt shop and of course I became completely hooked. I think I even dream about fabric! I love the process of picking a pattern and then the hardest part for me is picking fabric. There is so much to know- warm, cool, dark, light. big. small. It's mind numbing at times for me, but then I just start and it comes together. Sometimes better than others!
I hope everyone jumps in and checks out each others' blogs. Happy quilting everyone!!

Hello, Wish i could retire to quilt! Am thinking working quilting could be the next best thing - considering going back to highschool teaching to do that! I joined the Small New Blogs too - I'm quokka quilts. :)
Nice to meet you! Your Ocean View from the Prairie quilt is great. Love the orange!

Hey Patti, Thanks for leaving a comment. Which part of my name do you like? I might explain where it came from?
