I suppose I should reintroduce myself

Hello again. I have been away for a year, maybe 2. "Re-found" the board and have been checking it out.

I am from NE Ohio. I started piecing and quilting as therapy for a hand that I messed up badly several years ago. My work is and always will be novice, but that's fine with me. I am grateful to have an opposable thumb!!! My plan is to retire in a year and spend more time at the sewing machine.
I love paper piecing but have to use large patterns because I can't hold small items still.

Welcome back from Northern Indiana! I've been on the board for less than a year, but my day never seems complete until I check to see what's going on!

Welcome back from Southern California. I mostly do just strip piecing. I do love PP because my piecing comes out so accurate.

Welcome back! I love the quilting board because these gals and guys have become "my family". There is always someone who is willing to give you suggestions or help when you need it.
