Hi! I have sewn clothes for years, ever since high school. Made my daughters prom dresses and even a wedding dress but am fairly new to quilting. I love it and have TUBS full of fabric! I have been called Hotrod for years cause I used to drive a little to fast at times. When my husband and I started riding motorcycles, the name really stuck. We have only lived in Missouri for a couple of years since his retirement but I love having all this extra free time to sew! I have a friend in Indiana who sews with me via telephone and sometimes web cam. It's lots of fun! Hope to make some new friends here online.

Well Hotrod, you came to the right place! Welcome to the board...you'll find we love to yak, quilt and laugh. We especially like to look at pics...quilts and yes, anything else you'd like to show. Looks like you have a great furry friend there with you...does he/she quilt with you too?

Welcome from Maine! Glad to have you with us!

This is our puppy Bandit. He's not a puppy anymore tho. Yes, he likes to grab scraps out of my trash can. He's a real cutie. My husband is a dog lover so we have another puppy now. Her name is Ellie and she is a beagle. My friend in Indiana was teasing my husband and said we should name her Eleanor Burns; so she is Ellie! She likes to curl up in my sewing room when I'm sewing.
