Hi everybody!
 

Living in Switzerland where there aren't many quilters around, I'm very happy to join this forum where I can share my - albeit fairly new - passion with you guys! :) I've only started quilting this year, so I'm not the most experienced quilter. But I love to figure out how a design I saw can be realised or come up with new designs and ideas.

I hope to become part of your lovely online community!

Hello from Long Island NY! You will find great inspiration and advice here on these boards. I have only been quilting about a year and a half and I have learned so much!

I am am looking forward to seeing pictures of your projects

Welcome from the Sho-Me State - Missouri - USA. My husband's ancestors are from Switzerland and his sister actually went to Switzerland to look up some of their history, etc. Then my daughter had a foreign exchange student from Switzerland and they still keep in touch and my daughter wants to go and visit her. If you have been a garment sewer, then you will do fine following directions for a quilt.

Welcome from upstate New York. Hope to see you around.

You will learn many things on this site. Welcome from the beautiful mountains of western NC (and yes, I know the Alps are beautiful. I visited there many years ago and loved it, but western NC comes close!).

Welcome from Southern California! My mother's father's parents were from Switzerland, also. I need to find out exactly where. No one is sure when my great grandfather came over, but my great grandmother came over in 1892.

This is a fun site - hopefully you will enjoy it too.

hello and welcome to the board from New Hampshire!

Thanks everybody for the warm welcome! I'm sure I'll enjoy spending time with you virtually! :)


I've worked with exchange students as well, there are some great programmes! We had one girl from Argentina whose ancestors came from the Vaud/Wallis region (she still had the last name) and she did some research on them as well. Let me know when your daughter ever comes to Switzerland, I might be able to give her a few pointers (and we also have a sofa bed, just in case! :D)!

I haven't sewn any garments in years. But that's ok, I don't really follow patterns anyway, I enjoy to make them up myself! :)



Yes, please do find out! Wouldn't it be fun to find out that we're somehow distantly related?:D (Slim chance though, I guess!)

Welcome from the Gulf of Mexico, Corpus Christi, Tx. to be exact. Everything you want to know about quilting you will find your answers here. Someone will have a link or source for you to connect. Depending on what you need to know may take a while but will eventually the answer or tip will be found. Any input/suggestions from you will be met with great appreciation and enthusiasm. I usually start my day with coffee, newspaper and QB. Often the day will end with the QB.
