Ask Mom

Whether you are a new quilter or seasoned sewer, we all encounter challenges during the creative process. Send your questions to jeni@primitivequiltsandprojects.com, and longtime quilter and rug hooker Jeni Gaston might address them in a future issue. Letters may be edited for style, space and clarity.
