How Did I Quilt That: Beyond the Brick Wall
Beyond the Brick Wall is one of my creative wins. I don’t remember what I was doing at the time, but the vision for this quilt popped into my head. I bought the panel earlier but I didn’t know what to do with it. And then one day I did.

When I began quilting, I didn’t know any other quilters. I didn’t know how to go about meeting them either.

She invited me to come to her house for a casual gathering of quilting friends.
