Hi everybody,
I'm really happy to join this group, I have seen all the activities and pictues and it looks great!! I'm 43 years old and a manager for the government. I'm married to Rob and have a little dog called Paco. I'm crazy about quilting, and especially "recycle" old quiltops and blocks. I have a few old quilt tops and blocks (dated between 1860 - 1930) and I'm busy to repair them, and make new quilts of them, to honour the women who made those in the past. This is my blog: http://www.caro-en-rob.blogspot.com

With kind regards, Caroline (from a cloudy The Hague)

Hello from Denver, Colorado, USA. Welcome to the Quilting Forum. There are some very knowledgeable quilters here always willing to share ideas, quilts, techniques and laughs. It is great that you save the old quilts. I like that you respect the original maker by saving their work.

Welcome! You have the neatest quilt shop in Amsterdam, Den Haan & Wagenmakers. On my visit to Amsterdam, I found this quaint shop and fell in love with it. I bought several yards of fabric and have made 3 quilts and still have some in the stash.
