Quilting is so relaxing!

I started quilting yesterday. I made a tote bag from valentine charm squares. I still need to do the straps and sew them on and finish the bag. I loved working with the fabric and sewing. I need to start posting my creations on my blog here.
I was at Quilters Haven and fell in love with the store. I felt right at home there and it was comforting to be surrounded by all the fabrics and finished quilts. It reminded me of my mother and nana who were both excellent seamstresses.
I purchased a good ruler and talked to Chris the owner. She explained that I could take private classes with her and I look forward to learning how to cut fabrics. Eventually I will be able to make my own unique patterns and designs. But first I plan on doing easy projects to get into the swing of things.
