Greetings from North Carolina, I just retired and am hoping that now I can find a lot more time to quilt and do other fun things. I have been quilting for about 7 years and I am completely hooked. These forums are really new to me, but I am learning. Hope to talk to everyone soon. Juliebelle in NC

Welcome and congratulations on your retirement! This site is really pretty easy to use and I think you'll find like so many of us on here that it really is like another addicting hobby unto itself.
Is today your first day of retirement? You sure have started off on the right foot. What will you be working on for your first post-career quilt or project?

Hi and welcome from Wisconsin! I'm a newbie here also and love this board. Everyone is really helpful. I will retire in 7 months and am also looking forward to having more time to do the things I love...like quilting!

Hi and welcome from Washington state. I could almost be considered retired as I only work one day a week now. Sure do like that. Gives me lots of time to do things I want to do and a little bit of money to do them with.

You will love this board. It is so addictive. And you can learn so much. Everyone is very helpful if you have questions and you'll love looking at everyone's work. We're looking forward to seeing your projects as you finish them.
