I am new to quilting but not new to sewing.  I have been sewing most of my life starting with Barbie doll clothes.  I love fiber art of all kinds and I am also a weaver with a floor loom in my living room.  So I have a fabric stash and a yarn stash.  My quilting is strictly of the Art Quilt variety.  I don’t enjoy the exactness or the handwork of traditional quilting although I find myself something of a perfectionist.  I do take advantage of all the new technology including machine embroidery and computer manipulation of images.
