Thanks everyone what a wonderful warm welcome, it's appreciated. Thanks also for the kind comments about my quilts. I've just returned from visiting a friend in Evergreen CO and discovered Jo Anns, oh boy did that make my credit card sing. I bought beautiful fabrics, I almost always buy fabric when I'm in the US, they are so much cheaper than in England for some reason. Now I have the wonderful task of starting a new quilt, always exciting.
