Your quilts are beautiful. And so different. Maybe one day I can make
quilts like those!

Hi, I'm Gina a 38yr old housewife and mother of a 12yr old girl. I
live in caerphilly, a town in the South Wales valleys, UK.
I've been quilting for about 8 years and enjoy all aspects of it. I
hand and machine piece and applique. Although I machine quilt for
speed I prefer hand quilting.
I normally have at least 4 projects on the go at any one time. Hand
piecing, machine piecing, hand quilting and machine quilting. i refuse
to start another project until I've finished my previous.
I normally spend around three hours a day on my projects.
Away from patchwork and quilting I enjoy gardening, keeping orchids
( hence the nickname) and watching soccer.

I'm quite chatty and will try to join in with most discussions.

Looking forward to getting to know you all

Hullo Gina, and welcome.
Nice to have someone from *South Wales. I am not that far from you,
South Shropshire. I mean, it is quite far, in time, because of the
roads! but not so far as the crow flies. Hope you like cheese g
Orchids, too! Have you made your orchid quilt yet? That would be
stunning.
I've saved you website for looking at later - I'm in a bit of a rush at
the minute.
Hope to see/hear from you again soon.

Welcome Gina - I am at the other side of the UK to you - East Anglia.
What lovely colourful quilts, and orchids too. I have just killed my
orchid (it finished flowering, and then everything went wrong) -
fortunately it is not possible to kill quilts!! Not unless you try
really hard.

The 'Threads and Swirls' looks interesting - reminds me of a drawing toy
my children had, but can't remember its name.

Gina,
Your quilts are lovely. I'm particularly fond of the "Dazzling
Diamonds" - beautiful use of color.
Your orchids are very pretty too!

Welcome, Gina! I've just had a lovely tour through your quilts --
they're just beautiful. Did you design Patchwork in Perspective
yourself? It's amazing! And I just love Into Africa; are the giraffes in
the outer blocks quilted, or is that the fabric?
