    I'm like you -- away from family, just learning to quilt -- except I'm a gramma and don't have children at home! This is the BEST quilting forum I've found with the nicest people you'll ever "meet". Welcome aboard!

    Sorry that you had to move away from your mom and other family -- but around here, you'll have lots of friends and we treat each other pretty much like "family"!! So now you have lots of sisters and a few brothers to talk to about quilting.... :wink:

    Welcome from Idaho.....I'm far away from family too. My eldest 2 children live on the East Coast, my parents in the Mid West and we're over here on the West side. So we're pretty strung out as far as distance goes. I'm the only one who has kept up the crafting, sewing, etc. Just recently I started quilting.. or I should say my take on quilting. I'm still learning so much. Being here on this wonderful forum you'll learn so very much. Everyone is so helpful and friendly here.

    Welcome aboard. I am new here as well, and have found this site to be very helpful. I am a self-taught quilter so am not professional by any means and am not even that good. I really enjoy this site and can hardly wait to come here several times a day and read up on what everyone is up to. Oh, and by the way, I am from Canada.
