Hi & Welcome!

A bucket of sunshine for you from Sunny FL! It's great that you have a local shop that offers classes. Fun and you get to meet new friends too.

Hi and welcome from snowy Maine, and might I add, cold.... Congrats on your retirement. I tell my husband about my hobbies, quilting and gardening my two biggest ones, "oh DH, don't worry, I'm just practicing for retirement",

Hi Jeanette. Welcome from CNY, where I have lived my entire life. I'm a retired registered nurse and love having the time to pursue my passion for quilting. This Q Bd is great ... I think you are going to be happy you joined.

Welcome Jeannette. I was born in central New York (half way between Binghamton & Syracuse) and I'm still here. Winters do get long here but you sure can get a lot of sewing done.

Welcome from Albany area of NY. I am enjoying the snow when I don't have to go out in it. Unfortunately, I am not retired and still have to go out in it more than I would like. When I don't have to work, I love quilting and sewing nice and cozy inside when it is miserable outside.
