Welcome Carrie! You'll find that your seam ripper is your best friend, it gives you the opportunity to try again. Old or new quilters never run out of seam rippers! lol lol

Patrice has a bark worse than a bite. Just say "yes ma'am" and "no ma'am" She likes that kind of thing. (Vicki she's gonna kill us both)

Happy Quilting, Carrie,
Sharon

Hi Carrie and welcome,

I am a newcomer to the group as well. :) Everyone is so friendly...looking forward to getting to know you. :)

HI Carrie,
i too am new to the board and quilting. you have joined a good site as you learn so much just by reading everyones comments. i have only finished one small wallhanging and am doing a second. There are so many things i want to do so i am going to stick to small wallhangings as they take me so long to make so would hate to make a full size quilt as that might never get finished.
:lol:
i also like gardening and reading just like you do but am passionate about quilting. Your wallhanging was beautiful so hope you keep on quilting!! :thumbup:

Hi Carrie, welcome to the group again. :)

Just jump right in, this is the greatest group! :) I'm in Canada and the last few nights I have spent hours reading all the posts, lost track of time last night and before I knew it, it was 3am.. yikes!! lol :D

Hi Carrie,
I am new here too, in fact this is my first post other than the introduction. I sounds like we hit a gold mine here with all the nice ladies..... we will certainly enjoy our stay here don't you think? tlcquiltnut

Hello from Louisiana! My name is Maggie and I have been quilting for about 5 years. But, I have been sewing since I was 4. Made my first quilt (a queen size rail fence pattern) after I took a trip to Arkansas. Now I am hooked.

Welcome Maggie. You have come to the right place. We would love to see pictures of your quilts. They can be posted in the Pictures section - directions are in the first thread there.
