Hi there! I am originally from Deland FL!!! I now live in Wisconsin but miss Florida terribly! My parents are still in Deland though. My mom works at the Quilt Shop of Deland so if you ever stop in there you should say hello!

Hi.I used to live in DeLand and I moved away and moved back again.I have beento the DeLand quilt shop.I sure will tell her you said hello.I am glad to be back!

Hello to Finch and Kimmers. I have lived in DeLand, Fla for 23 yrs, but moved away and living in TN for 30 years. My mom and dad were in DeLand, then South Daytona, then finally migrated to Tn when they became ill. Welcome to the quilting board, you will love it here. The best board I have ever found, full of talented men and women who love to quilt.

I was born and raised in Deland and then after I got divorced moved to Daytona just before moving up here 6 years ago. Was just back home in January and can't believe how much has changed in 6 years and how much Deland has grown! So glad to see others from my hometown! I love this board!! I don't usually comment alot but I look at the posts every single day…so many ideas and hints and help from wonderful people!

Welcome to the board from Southern California!!

welcome, waving from Indiana, USA

I am digging the Pink FW!! I have done a few repaints on them but never a pink one.

Feel free to hop on over to the Vintage Sewing Machine Shop and show off some more of you beauties!!! I am mailing off a White FW I picked up for a member here and after playing with hers I think I have to have one now!!!! But this one was only used 4 times in its life and is super pristine. If you go to the shop you will see it!

Glad to have you aboard and welcome to our great big family!!!

Billy
