Do you do other types of sewing besides quilting? : No
Do you have other creative hobbies?: Photography, gardening and fabric collecting.
What’s your oldest UFO? Any tips on how you keep them from piling up?: I have a queen sized quilt I started about 15yrs ago. It’s size has made it very difficult to handle while hand quilting. Recently I got a quilting rack so hopefully the finish is within sight.
