I just started quilting after being very shy of it to start with. I found this web site, posted a few questions, and already have got a lot of help with saving money and simple things I need to know.
A very kind person on general chat last night offered to mail me some of her scrpas, and I cannot believe this. You do not know how much it means to me right now just to have someone to be nice to me. People like that are truly angels. My life is going through a major change right now, and I am having to be especially careful with money. I even hesitated to start this because I was not sure how I could afford it all, andnow someone just offered to share!
I have also noticed that many of you have a fondness for cats and dogs. So do I. I have several pets that I have taken out of shelters. I will literally sit down and cry when I see commercials with pets in pounds without homes. No pet should be without a family to love it. Thank you to everyone here for taking care of your pets and loving them, especially to people who have rescued unwanted pets.
I will stop rambling now, but thank you so much for this web site, and your warmth and kindness. God truly does send love when you most need it.

Welcome from Southeastern, PA! Yes, it is wonderful that websites like this let us see that others are having a tough time as well. It kind of puts things in perspective when you hear some of the issues.
