Welcome

In 2001, I taught myself how to make quilts from a couple of books, and I was hooked! I started with a few pieced pillow cases and quickly jumped to a full-size quilt and I haven't looked back.  Fast forward too many years to count, and now quilting is my  "me" thing.  My me time.
For a long time I felt like I was the only person I knew who quilted. Now, thanks to social media, I have a whole network of young(ish) quilters like myself.

 I love what is happening with the modern quilt movement right now and the modern fabrics that are being produced.  Previously, I never knew what to call my quilting/design style, but now I'm pretty confident that I'm a "Modern Traditionalist."  I'm really enjoying all the modern-ish quilt pics that are all over Instagram, and I try to post there a couple of days a week. You can find me at @handmademyrth on social media.  I use this website to share more of the stories and inspiration behind the quilts I make, and more and more I am sharing patterns and tutorials for those quilts. Check out my blog to see my most recent quilt-finish, and my tutorials page to see the what patterns and tutorials I am sharing.
