Thank you for the wonderful welcome. I hope y'all are staying warm.
I noticed others were mentioning more about themselves than I did.
I'm married, no kids (not yet anyway
). I have three dogs and work from home as a technical writer. Most of my sewing has been for the dogs. I've made collars, jackets and jumpers for them (they're italian greyhounds so they get cold easily). I sew on a Janome HD3000 has been a pleasure. My old Kenmore and I used to have lots of fights lol. I just picked up a vintage Singer 201-2 and am restoring it to its former glory. Charming machine it is and I can't wait to use it.

Hey Neighbor. Welcome to the QB. When you run out of things to sew for your dogs, you may be interested in seeing what other board members are doing for charity. It is so much fun and very much needed and satisfying.

quilting and haven't ever left quilting.. Internet/online has much too offer, Missouri quilt, Eleanor burns, connecting threads, all your quilt show vendors, everyone is so willing to help.. But, don't ever feel you are less a quilter than another by comparing.. Each person develops at her own pace, and with her own taste.. Don't measure yourself to others, measure yourself through your own progress and style.
