Hello, am really enjoying all your posts and am learning a lot. This is such a friendly group here and I look forward to entering in. I've only been quilting off and on for about 10 years, call me a late bloomer, but it's true what everyone says, quilting is addictive. Also have a couple Viking machine embroidery machines and love to combine my embroidered blocks with pieced blocks for quilts although I've never yet kept one for myself but the next one will be for me. We live in the beautiful White Mountains of Arizona and make very frequent trips to the Phoenix area (about 190 miles away) especially during the winter, so can enoy both environments depending on the weather. Look forward to talking with you, just have to figure out how all this works. Julene in AZ
