    Hi everyone...
    My name is Shirley (hense the SAJackson) I'm a wife, mother, grandmother AND quilter...NOT necessarily in that order...

    I have been quilting since the mid 1970's...I think my first quilt is on my grandson's bed...it is a SAD looking threadbare thing. Last Christmas I made 9 quilts for a family Dirty Santa Auction... We all had a ball - but when my DDIL commented that she couldn't find one my g.son got from another year - I decided they had too many quilts and I won't be doing it again.

    I love on-line groups and friends...they are the BEST! I've met several of my on-line friends and have had wonderful friendships with them. Next month I'm going to a retreat for one group - looking forward to it!

    I'm retired - or which means I have more time but less money to spend on quilting. I do have a mid-arm quilter and from time to time - do accept quilts from friends to quilt for them. It's not a business - but a hobby. LOVE my quilting!!!!

    Looking forward to meeting more of you - I was in the chat room this morning and this group looks like a "happening" place.

    HUGS to all
    Shirley

    Hi! Waving back from Northern Michigan! This is a great group.
    I also have an internet friend that I met in real life and we had a blast. It's a great way to connect with people you are similar to.

    Welcome from Connecticut. I'm glad you've already checked out the chat room. I was there this morning, but I was half asleep, so I'm not sure if we were chatting!
