Glad I could help :D I might even see you there (although I don't think bank balance will allow me to visit as often as I'd like)

Hi Enola

I joined this board back in July but have not got around to doing anything until now! I bought my material yesterday to start my along awaited table runner! Next purchase is a Janome Memorycraft 3500 sewing machine from John Lewis!

I see you are in Bradford - I live in Stockport and there is a lovely shop called Patchfinders in Hazel Grove in Stockport where I bought my material from. It is a real Aladdin's cave and such beautiful materials. Probably a 1.5 hour drive from Bradford. The ladies are so helpful and patient too with beginners who don't know where to start............ :lol:

Hi Enola from Delavan, Illinois. You're gonna love it hear...and from some of the previous posts, it looks like there's a good potential for a weekend quilting friend. Wouldn't it be fun if you and Karenmay
could get together and quilt away!!!

welcome enola. I love to find fabric in thrift shops and at yard sales You can find some great buys and great colors and patterns on the cheap-side. It seems more old-timey to me. To use discarded clothing. I have stuff thats got to be 20 yrs old at least. In good condition if it's been stored right. I'm collecting Hawaiian prints among other things :-)
