Hi and welcome from New York. Good news that you have recovered from your infection and shoulder problems and ready to take on quilting.

Welcome from snowy North Carolina. wishing you good health for 2011.

Hello and welcome from Minnesota!

Welcome from Manitoba, Canada. You will love this site!

HI Dya,

I too live with arthritis, it is summer here at the moment and so I am much more comfortable and able to do longer stretches when quilting. (well when I get the time to do so)

Also retired but that is an understatement as I am sure that I don't know where I found the time to "go to work" because since leaving it I have been busier than ever :shock:

Stay safe and well

A big welcome from Texas (USA) Haha, is there a Texas anywhere else?! Hope you're better real soon. My DH has had three medical situations this year, and I'm exhausted! I can read when I can't quilt. Make yourself at home!

Hello and welcome from Grand Rapids, MI. Please post pics for us as you complete projects, I love to see fabrics from other countries.

HI,Welcome from North Carolina

Hi Dya and welcome from northern California, USA! I am glad that you feel ready to quilt, you will enjoy it here!

So I thought I better registrate. Still have to find my way around here but I'll get there, probably with some questions along the way :roll:

I'm Dya from the Netherlands, a 60 yr. old secretary, who's enjoying early retirement. My DGC are Jesse, 10 yr, Tessa, 8 yr old.
I share my home with 3 cats and Amy, an almost 5 yr old French bulldog, (such a sweetie).

My 'plan' was to spent much time quilting as I have that time now, but unfortunately my joints, esp shoulders, were giving me such a hard time that I needed a lot of therapy to get 'things' moving properly again. And just as I thought I could re-start, I got a bacterial infection in my left hand, that took over 3 month to respond to medication,
Soooooooo, I hardly dare say it out loud, but I'm ready to start again .
I guess this makes me an old newbie :P

If you want to know more, just ask!

I'm looking forward to meet and get to know you.

So glad you are here! Welcome from Tennessee!!
