My dog & cat would have a field day with arm knitting. My grandmother wouldn't teach me how to knit because I'm left handed.

I'll be finishing the binding on another quilt today. My 20 lb cat believes that the sewing room is his bedroom and any quilts in progress are there as his bed.

I learned how to knit by sitting in front of my grandma watching her. So I knit left handed, or just backwards of Grandma.

My 5 year old granddaughter has nearly finished her first quilt top. She's got her own little sewing machine to use in my sewing room. I'm taking her to her first quilt show next week.

I told my grandmother I'd reverse the steps myself, but she just got up and that was that. She lived in NY & I grew up in Louisville so I didn't have the opportunity to just watch. Over the years I forgot about it, but getting stuck in boring meetings make me wish I could knit socks. Instead I doodle continuous line quilt designs.
