    I've been sewing for 70years & am very confident in my skills. However, occasionally I really enjoy watching others sew. Different methods etc can only help my skill grow. You and your girls are truly expert & I've picked up several tricks I'd not known before. Thanks!

    I have been sewing for over 60 years but, I have only started quilting 30 years ago. I have been sporadic about it but no that I'm retired I have been more consistently piecing tops and machine quilting some of the lap quilts. You make them all look so easy to do. I haven't tried the double wedding ring or Dresden plate types yet or any stars. I guess I just have to decide to make them. Next is Jacob's ladder. I watched you and the triple play. I can do it. Thanks for the encouragement.
