Oh dear, where do I start? This board has enabled me to cultivate and grow my addiction to quilting. Every single day, I get a lesson from my fellow quilters. I learned to quilt at my mother's knee, so to speak, when I was "knee high to a grasshopper." Then I grew up, went to school, got married and raised a family. I quilted off an on during that time, making quilts for each of my children, then on to the grands. Now I quilt for anyone and everyone, including myself. I am thankful for all the suggestions, the "funnies" and the wealth of information. I get knowledge from the selection of fabric to the type of quilt that will go with that fabric. I get knowledge about what notion I absolutely can't live without and which notion may be a "luxury."
As someone else mentioned, I now have a PhD in all things quilted. I come to the board the first thing and read it while enjoying my 2nd cup of coffee. I get my fix and then I can go about my day. Thanks to all of you wonderful ladies and gentlemen that have contributed to my higher education. It is greatly appreciated. Also a word of graditude to the moderators, who work their little "butts" off and their fingers to the bone for us. Thank you. Thank you.
