On this day, five years ago, I made my first post on my blog, Scrapmaster. After re-reading my first post, I think I have kept on with "The Grand Plan", and then some! I was brand new to computers at the time. I have learned so much since then. The quilty inspiration in blogland is endless. Sometimes, just overwhelming! I just do the best I can and try to put my personality into every quilt I make.
The whole cloth quilt on the bed in the photo was my first finish since starting my blog. It is called "Welsh Beauty". I started the handquilting it in 2005 and finished it Feb 24 of 2008. The photo is not good. Wish I could get a better shot of it. I used a shade of a darker taupe handquilting thread so the handquilting shows up very well in person.
The quilt hanging behind the bed is also handquilted by me, mid-2011.
I love to wake in the morning surrounded by my quilts. Hanging a quilt behind the bed was Retired Hub's idea. There are actually 3 quilts on my bed during the winter months. Soooo cozy and warm.

Here's a question that I have asked myself just recently "How many blogs do you follow?" (289 for me!)
