In a week I have decided on the quilt I want to make, found an amazing person, Colleen who has agreed to make it with me even though we are thousands of miles apart and have never met.
Agreed to start a pinwheel project.
Been told about fantastic online stores that I never knew about
Chatted to some really lovely people in the chat room
....all this inspired me to completly sort out my sewing room and organise my stash revealing loads of wonderful fabrics I had completly forgotten about.....
What a week.... Thank you

Welcome, hold on tight you are in for the ride of your life.
I have been quilting for years and have learned more in the months I have been here than all the years before. You make such good friends here too. I found a pen pal and I'm 73, my first pen pal. Welcome
