Why thank you, I do do very well for someone my age. LOL When the board changed over to the new format a few months ago I noticed that the year had been added to my birth date. I have tried to edit my profile to fix it, but didn't have any luck doing so, so just left it like it was. If you promise not to tell anyone I'll tell you the true year - 1948.

"Oh, she's a children's librarian with 3 cats and a doting husband. They live next door to her elderly aunt who she has tea with a couple of times a week. Her quilting is mostly done for charities."

I will go see how much info I left...

A great profile!!! Very interesting, from roller darby to quilting!! I'll bet the others will go to your profile now, just to find out what I'm talking about. You sound like a fun person!

I like to think I'm fun!
I mentioned roller derby in a post once before. Either folks aren't sure I was serious or didn't know what I was talking about. I'll make a diagram in case someone is curious.

I often look at the location. If you want your privacy, at least put the state.

I never look at the profiles, they would be blank anyway.

Yes I read them all the time.

I don't normally check out profiles..but I did fill my out sometime ago. I added a bit to it today, a few updates !

I never looked at profiles, until today. I just went in and updated my info. You are right, it is nice to know something about the person posting. Thanks for the input.

I added a little to mine yesterday but after reading these comments I think I will add more, it is nice to know something abut those of you who post alot like do you have other interest, do you work full times when do you like to quilt the most, what is your fav color, quilt pattern, etc. I think you get the message.

Interesting thread. I would imagine that many people are like me. I filled in very little when I first joined because I was shy about it as I was very new to quilting. Then under the old system I posted wrong and either had to wait three months or start under a new name. The first few profiles I looked at did not have much more than mine. Since then I haven't looked so have never updated. Maybe you will be an inspiration to a lot of us. Thanks for starting this thread.
