Hi Mar32428:
Here you've been on the board since last July and this is the first I've seen you. I'm so sorry to be so late with my WELCOME! I sure hope you'll post some of your "friends" now and then. With your 70 + years of experience I think we could all draw a wealth of information, inspiration and education from you. Please share. We're a pretty good bunch of folks who love our hobbies and our time with our On-line friends. WELCOME.

Welcome aboard! We're thrilled to have you join us! Feel free to post pictures, we'd love to oooh and aaaahhh over your treasures. Tell your friends The Quilting Board says hello. :)

Had some health problems to take car of which slowed my sewing for awhile but I'm back in full swing now. I'll post some pics soon. I've loved your comments and learned from all of you. What would we do without our quilting friends?

Wow 79 . Bless your heart. Welcome. I'm fairly new too and in a short time have learned that these gals are just awesome.

welcome :mrgreen: and Howdy from Rhode Island.

I didn't see you either! I'm in Polk County. Welcome!

Welcome to the board. It sounds like you are very busy. With grandkids and great grandkids you are proably sewing up a storm. :thumbup: Please post some pictures of your quilts when you get a chance.

Glad you're back in full swing now. Welcome & glad you have decided to join in. I hope you'll share some of your work as it's always fun to see what everyone else is doing. :D

Hello and welcome from a 70 year old in England. I have found so many new friends on this site, and the knowledge is passed on freely, although you seem to have so much experience it looks as though some people will be coming to you. But no matter how old you are you never stop learning do you?

Welcome Mar!
I'm relatively new here, too. I have been quilting a short time and learned most of my tricks online. Mom is a 4H instructor & member of a sewing & quilting group.... so I do have her should I run into trouble. I look forward to hearing from you & do hope you'll share your expertise with us (and pictures, too). :D
