About You:

I began sewing by hand at the age of 4. My Mom gave me a hot pad with a blue bird printed on it with the saying God Is Love...in this experience I was not allowed to put the needle through the batting...I had to learn the feel of handling the needle and depth...it took me awhile to complete it correctly but I did and I still have it...She taught me how to sew, crochet and all domestic things done in a home...I grew up a true happy in my skin kind of gal! Today I have a small quilt shop in my home with 300 bolts of 1800 Reproduction and some 1900 Vintage..it is a blast to quilt and I can't get to it fast enough each day....I do have a hubby! and he is wonderful to me.. in this life he encouraged me to become a nurse and then when I was burning out in that field he really step up to the plate and let "Suziebell" enter our home a few years ago and the Gammill longarm has changed our lives!... As a happy met in High School kind of couple, wer even aised 3 kids successfully and they are our greatest accomplishment in this life!! We love them and are so proud of them...they have also blessed us with 8 grandables with 1 more on the way , due in April 2009!...

God Bless You if you have taken the time to read this! and visit me at oldgloryquilting.com anyday! Kari

I clicked on your Old Glory Quilt Shop and found your interest in the Underground Railroad. I have and interest in the RR but have found very little on what each block or quilt really meant in order to direct the travelers. Do you have more information or internet sites that you find authentic. I would like to see some of the work from your students and learn the meaning of the blocks. So awesome that the quilts are made with reproduction prints.

I like the tradition of quilting and prefer to hand piece and quilt, I would think my preference in building a quilt would fit right in with reproductions. The sad thing about my methods is that not many get done as they are time consuming.

I have a sampler that is a double bed size that I need to 'get back out' and finis, all hand pieced and quilted. Before that will happen I plan to piece together a lone star design in the shape of a bald eagle to present to my son who is currently working on his Eagle in Boy Scouts.

I reside in New York State and will frequent your website regularly.

Welcome,

What a great write up? You sound like you really enjoy life. I have found that most quilters do. They are always active with not only quilting, but so many other things. I look forward to getting to know you better.
