College Grad! (Art Education) here in the burbs of Chicago who loves to sew!!!!!

Hello everybody! My name is Emily and I am a 24 year old with a serious fabric addiction. I recently graduated from a small liberal arts college in the Chicagoland area, where I majored in Art Education (K-12) with a concentration in printmaking. Now I'm looking for a job as an art teacher and working as a substitute teacher :)
My work in printmaking spans most mediums including etching, wood and linoleum blocks, xerox transfer monoprinting and even silk screening. I spend a lot of time with my family, I have many cousins and they have a lot of babies that need babysitting (and quilts!)!
I learned to sew a bit from my aunt and grandmother but mostly I have used the trial and error method and taught myself with help from the online community (believe me there were errors!). I have recently gotten back into quilting and look to the online quilting community as my main guidance in everything from improvisational piecing to how to baste a quilt. I am interested in modern quilting and have been exploring many kinds of piecing and creating quilts. I hope you enjoy looking around my photostream, feel free to leave a comment or contact me with any questions.
