Wow, we now have 12, 021 members on Quilting Board. Please post a note and introduce yourself as we are all friendly and lots of good quilters here that can give us guidance and tips.

I am Karen "Craftybear" from Indiana, USA. My birthday is November 15, 1956 and I am a beginner. I am married, no kids, but we have a spoiled shih tzu dog, Felix.

I love surfing online for patterns so last year I created some blogs to save the links to when I surf so others can enjoy (you will see my blogs on the siggie message below)

I just love reading the messages and I have learned lots of things so far.

Okay who is next to introduce yourself and please don't lurk as we love to hear about you and I'm sure you will meet some new quilting friends from all over the world.

I have done searches to find cool messages to read and also on the user list can search by location so I have met new friends from Indiana. USA

Happy Quilting!

Hard to believe we have that many users. But I'm glad to see it.
