Hello!
 

hello, I’m new to the whole forum experience, and a beginning quilter. I’ve been sewing for years mostly clothing and costumes for my kids and grandkids. I’m excited to be able to learn two new skills now!

Welcome & Howdy from Texas. Glad to have you here. Ask questions as there are so many great quilters with answers here. We love pictures & want to see your progress.
May I suggest that when you finish your very first quilt (or table runner, or pot holder) or what ever it is, don't throw it out. Keep it as you will be surprised how far you come in such a short amount of time. You're on your way to a wonderful hobby/journey.

And we are glad to have you here -- look at you with a picture avatar and everything already!

I also came to quilting from a garment and costuming background, but I was a bit younger. I remember how impossibly tiny that 1/4" seam allowance seemed... you get used to it :)

Welcome from sunny Southern California. Your background is the same as mine, and it gives you a head start on quilting. I think the main difference between clothing construction and quilting is the accuracy quilting requires. I think you'll love it!

Welcome to the board from NE Ohio.

A warm Welcome from New England!! I too did mostly sewing before I began quilting. When the children were young, I made almost all their clothing - including racing swim suits for my daughter. But now my sewing is quilting and am loving the creativity that I can call on. This is a great group - you will find lots of helpful hints and fantastic support.

Welcome from the sunset coast of Michigan! Glad you are here! Hugs!

Welcome to the QB from SE Michigan! You will find this group an exciting place to learn all kinds of new thing. There are a number of forums to choose from. What I did when I was new and it works great is to go to "new post" and jump right in! So much to learn and share this way. Again welcome aboard.

Thank you, I’ll remember to do that!

Thank you!
