I came on board just after this new format started; had found this site about a couple of months before that but just was a "lurker." I'm finding my way around pretty good and just want to send a "cheerful" encouragment to you. All of you people have taught me SO much and I'm inspired regularly by what I see others do. Change in life is something we have no control over; being flexible and willing to change does take work. I hope after the busy holidays you'll have a better experience with it. Without this site, I doubt I would ever have learned or attempted a quilt. After the holidays, I CANNOT wait to start my 2nd quilt. Hope things work out for you!
