About Me: My passion is sewing, originally sewing clothes but now quilting. I also enjoy beading for my personal enjoyment and for gifts.

Hobbies and Interests: quilting, machine quilting, general sewing, other

My Pets: cat

I have been sewing clothes since I was in grade school. When my husband and I, now empty nesters, moved into the 19th century house, I decided that we needed a quilt for our bed. That decision started my conversion to quilting in June of 2005.

I purchased a quilt frame this past spring to use with my 10" bed standard sewing machine. I have yet to finish a quilt on it because I am still learning. I would like to talk with other quilters to find out more about machine quilting skills.

It's been a busy summer. I've been trying to catch up on the postings all day. I read a page every now and then. Exciting things have been happening...very cool.

Did you and Jo Ann ever meet for lunch? Do you want to try to set up a weekend lunch again? Just let me know. I would love to get together and do some quilt chatting!!!

I am not sure that I will be able to make the Racine Show. I have finally settled on a machine and will be going to order it next Thursday. They will be having a great deal on it at the APQS Road Show in Elkhorn. I did a lot of research and that is the machine for me (Milennium). I tried a lot of machines and did a lot of research and this machine is the best fit for me. If I get the chance to go the the Racine show I will definately let you know so we can meet up. Maybe the next time I take a road trip to Cedarburg I will let you know and we can meet there. Julia

I was at the Madison show on Saturday also, spent all my time at the Longarm Machines and didn't really get to see much else. Saw just a couple of rows of the show quilts and then the few quilts that lined the hall where we came in. My hubby went with me (the engineer) needed his expert opinion (i think)LOL Seems its taking a lot longer to make a decision with his imput, but I do appreciate it. I almost wore a sticker that would have identified me as a Quilt With Us member, now I wish I would have. Have a great day and happy quilting.

At 3:03pm on September 6, 2009, Linda "Sue" Robertson, TN said…: The quilt itself was not made by me but the lady that quilts some of my quilts. The pattern is self explanatory, I have included a picture of it on the blog. Quiltsrjewels.com is where I got mine and Jewel is my quilter that owns the business. She made the orange and purple quilt. It is so much fun, Denise and I had a ball. In fact as soon as this storm passes that we're having I am on my way downstairs to work on some more squares. Happy Sunday Evening!!
