About Me: I've been quilting for about 25 years but have SO much to learn. I have a new sewing room so now I'm very blessed to be able to have everything organized...at last! I'm married, kids are grown, no pets just a quilting habit that eats me out of house and home. We spend a few months each winter in South Texas and I enjoy finding fabrics there; they are so different from those I buy in the Midwest. I LOVE this website, the CT fabric and also Iowa Quilters, the best group of quilt-sisters ever!

Hobbies and Interests: quilting, paper piecing, other

That has always confused me when I see a recipe calling for a "clove of garlic". I just don't know how to buy a garlic bulb and do a clove or whatever....no one in my family knows about this either!!! Sorry you have to try an educate someone my age about this! {LOL}
