Hello all:
I received an email from Loretta and decided to intoduce myself to you all. I have been receiving newsletters for over 4 years but did not join the forum until last fall (well spring for me, LOL). So here is a brief intro from me.
I am a New York girl transplanted to Argentina. My husband of 15 years is an Argentine and we retired here. My sister taught me to quilt in 2006 and before that I did not know how to sew. My first project was matching PJ's for my 3 grandsons and then I made a queen sized memory quilt for my son and daughter-in-law. I have been quilting ever since.
I love the forum. All the girls are so helpful and have so much knowledge that they are all willing to share.
It is impossible to get any 100% cotton printed material here. They just don't sell it. So I order from the internet or send to my sister and she mails it to me. When I visit NY to see my family I usually forward material to my son and take it back with me.
Look forward to many more years with you all on the forum.
Sincerely,
Penny

Welcome from California. How exciting to live in Argentina!
(but sorry fabric isn't readily available---
-although even those of us in the US are
relying on "online" resources----the fabrics are cheaper
if you hunt around)
I bet you are fluent in Spanish, wish I was......
