Hi everyone. I'really pleased to have found a place to share ideas and talk with other quilters from around the world.
It was quite a job finding this place, you should have seen some of the rubbish that my search engine found, lol and my virus program was having a fit. Anyway I live in New Zealand and would really enjoy hearing from other quilters. My particular interests in quilting are foundation piecing, traditional piecing & traditional applique. I love to play with pattern and colour and have made quite a few quilt tops and some finished quilts. Unfortunately because I would rather make quilt tops than finish them, I have quite a few UFO's lol. It would be lovely to hear from some of you. I am very new to the web so please pardon any unknowing breaches of web etiquette in advance. Thanks. In the meantime Happy Stitiching from ShellyQ |
Welcome newbie! Lots of people here from all over. Glad you can join us!

Welcome ShellyQ We're glad to have you!!
|

Thanks to everyone for the greetings :)
I promise pictures soon lol. I'm waiting to get my other computer back which has the right connections for my camera. Had a major crash, needed new hard drive, modem and computer had faulty boot disks which had to be replaced from Austalia. Been 9 weeks now and still waiting, Should be ready soon though. Anyhow soon as I can I will post some pics, promise. Cheers for now |
Welcome ShellyQ! I've passed thru' the Aukland airport a few times on my way to my sister's in Australia. Wished I could have had time to actually visit there too.
I know what you mean about the ufo's...completing the quilt is the hardest part for me too. I'm supposed to take some quilts to my guild meeting Thursday night - my friend Ann is our speaker & her topic is "Secrets of the Quilt Police", so she needs samples to "judge". Ha! I only have one finished quilt that isn't a small wall hanging! And somehow, I don't think I'll be getting any more done between now & then. LOL Enjoy the forum! :D sue |
Welcome! We have fun and as you see cover a lot of territory. :D

Welcome! A lot of fun and interesting things go on here. I know you will gt lots of laughs and learn a lot too. My true love besides my DH is applique. Right now I work almost 50 hrs a week at a rock quarry so have little time for much else --We are in the process of remodeling our house and getting it ready to sell in a couple of years when I retire. At that point, I am going to quilt till I drop and get up and quilt some more.
Anyway, welcome aboard. |
