My current quilt interests are:

Machine Embroidery Items - My new love as of October 2007 is machine embroidery.  That topic lead into one giant challenge of how to machine embroidery, what to embroider on (types of fabrics and stabilizers) as well as when to quilt and how to quilt.  I'm having so much fun!  Click the "Machine Embroidered Items" in the header to see my latest projects.

Scrap quilts - I have been frantically cutting my scraps into various size squares and use them to make scrap quilts.  Yes, scraps still live in my home; they seem to be multiplying.

Accuquilt Go! Cutter - My new best friend.  I purchased it the first year it was manufactured and kind of let it sit in my storage  area.  I started to regret the purchase but then realized the reason I didn't use it was because I didn't have the dies I wanted to work with.  Needless to say, I invested more money in dies but this time I was successful.  I use the die cutter much more efficiently now and have it readily available to cut my pieces, even if just for one block.

Blocks - I'm such a technique junkie.   I love trying new ideas, that's why I have over 230 UFOs.  On my blog I am coordinating a year long project to make all the blocks in Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Vol. 2.  I have about 7 other quilters participating.  It's amazing how everyone's blocks looks so different.  Stop by the blog to check them out.

Hand appliqué - Took a class in January 2002 and have been addicted every since.

My other interests:  Other than quilting, I like quilting (smile.)  I love to roller skate and I bowled for many years in a bowling leagues with my husband.  I bowled a 300 (perfect score) game August 2001.  Wow, I was beside myself.  I'm now a retired bowler.  I also love to line dance, read, and spend time with friends and family.
