Time to blog

I've been thinking of blogging for a while now. I really enjoy reading blogs by my daughter, sister, niece, and other bloggers out there. I don't know that I can be as creative, but here it goes.....

I love to quilt. I joke that I do it for my sanity, but that is the truth. It keeps me sane. How is it that cutting fabric up into pieces and then sewing it all back together again can feel so good? I love the look when it all comes together -- the natural cotton sandwiched between the top and bottom, and the machine quilting all done. I work from home doing transcription. My office is also my sewing room. There are days when I think I'll punch out and just sew for a few minutes......bad mistake. I have to keep reminding myself that I type to support my quilting habit!

Amen, Sister! That's why I quilt. I find it relaxing and I feel good for creating something. It seems like there's so much destruction going on.

Welcome to the blogosphere! I'm looking forward to seeing some of your quilts!
