Hi everyone, I am from Brisbane, Australia. I have been quilting for a while now, though still exploring and I have heaps of UFO's in the process. I have a passion for old sewing machines and am currently creating a sampler quilt on an old treadle named "Queenie", just to see if I can do it :)

Wings, hello and welcome from an Iowa girl :lol: :lol: :lol: .
Earlier this spring (our spring) we had a young girl visit our farm from S. Australia. Grands quickly started calling her Aussie Amy to differentiate from their Aunt Amy. She was a delight to have here :lol:

Hi OKSEWGLAD - thankyou very much for your welcome. I lived in South Australia many years ago. I was born on a farm and miss the country life. Probably why I love quilts :)

Hullo tlrnhi from Guam - temps here at 25 deg C. very dry at the moment and lots of bushfires. We have just had the biggest dust storm in seventy years. The beaches on the Gold Coast looked wonderful on the news tonight. :)
