Hope I do not freak anyone out by joining the board. I have been admiring the handy work for a few weeks. I was going to wait until I had something to show but...I ain't done yet!

I started wanting to quilt as a way to relax and as some odd method for me to relate to simpler times. Got some 5" squares on ebay, did a border, did the backing and pinned the whole thing together this evening. I did this all by hand so I hope it holds as I never sewed before. I did do a running stitch.

Anyway...hi!

Welcome!

You can ask some of our resident men-folk, but they'll tell you we won't bite (hard, anyway)

Just don't believe anything Tim tells you about toes.
