Quilting



I learned to sew when I was 13, by my Aunt. Every summer we would visit her and she would try to teach my sister and I how to sew. I think my sister was better at it than me. Anyway, I have gotten better over the years. I am teaching myself how to quilt. I don't belong to any guilds yet. I want to learn how to do it first. Below, I was playing around with some scraps of fabric that were given to me in a floral print. I thought I could make pillow shams out of them, but the design appears to be too big for shams, and there isn't enough fabric, so these may have to be cut down and made into pillows, I don't know.

  2. Thanks Sharon. The floral fabric was given to me. I did not have a lot of it, so I wanted to make shams out of it.
