I just about fell over when my husband told me he'd ordered a book for me called "Still Stripping After 25 Years". Turns out it was a quilting book. Whew!
I had the book for at least two months before I worked up enough courage to even go buy the fabric for my first real quilt. I made one for him using four big pieces of material sewn together.
Technically, that was my first quilt. It's what we used to learn how to operate his mom's quilting machine. Let's just say it's funky. He likes it, and that's all that matters to me.
The "Still Stripping" book has been a wonderful introduction into the world of quiltmaking and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get started on their own quilting journey.
