Welcome from northwestern NY state!!

Welcome from Michigan!:)

Welcome from the home of the most famous groundhog, here in Pennsylvania! It's so exciting that you got over your fear of your sewing machine, and I can't wait to see what you create. :)

Welcome from Wyoming. This is a wonderful community. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I can empathize with you on the sewing needle. My mother did the same thing several times but I remember once in particular it was stuck, eeks. I pay a lot of attention to where my hands are and (knock on wood) haven't done this myself.

Welcome from Oklahoma. So glad you could join us.

Welcome from OHIO! :wave:

Welcome from Oklahoma, You will meet a lot of wonderful people on this board.

Welcome from Ontario, Canada. I've put the needle through my nail. That didn't stop me from continuing what I love though. I teach quilting at a quilting store near me now. I love it.

Hey Barb. I used to live in Louisiana for quite a few years, in Hammond! Much of my family is still down that way. My mom (the one who tried to sew her fingers) was born in New Orleans.
