I am new too. I have only been visiting for a couple of weeks and have leaned so much. I'm a little to shy to ask any questions (yet) but I started a list of things I want to learn. This site is the first thing I check everyday when I get to the computer. This has been great because I don't have to wait until I get to my LQS (that is a term I learned from this forum) whenever I have a question.
Thanks to everyone being so nice.

The folks on this board understand that sometimes we need expert advice, and at other times we need kudos for the "unique" masterpiece we created. How wonderful to be able to tell the difference.

I was shy, too. But everyone is so kind, they don't let you think your questions are dumb or elementary (as some of mine were). I am self taught and didn't learn a lot of tips until I got here. So, fire those questions away! You'll get answers. :thumbup:

Couldn't agree more - this board is full of really useful and friendly members. I've gotten lots of tips since joining.

raptureready 09-08-2010 06:51 AM

I agree with you! I can't speak for everyone but I know myself pretty well and you're right, I am a nice person! LOL LOL LOL

greaterexp 09-08-2010 07:08 AM

I'm so glad you've joined! You must be a mighty nice person yourself to notice.

I love this site, too, for the positive attitudes, help, and encouragement. Everyone seems to have plenty of grace for those moments when we all need to vent a little frustration. But no one stays in the pits for long around here!

Wow, I never expected such a response when I posted my note here. I am glad to know that there are so many other people that feel the same way I do. And I do see there are lots of you from my part of the country. i am in Vancouver WA. Any close neighbors?

Grandmama Pat 09-08-2010 07:53 AM

I'm a neighbor in the opposite corner of the country. Love this board. I don't post much and only respond to the topics that move me or I'm interested in. The ideas and help we get on this board are astounding. I love it here and spend way too much time reading what everyone has to say. Love it though!!!

I'm glad to have found you. Group Hug.

Derla 09-08-2010 10:08 AM

I have one big complaint about this message board ---- I use too much of my time reading it!! What if I'd miss even one little gem by skipping a day?

RDM 09-08-2010 10:17 AM

I second that, and welcome.

Grandmama Pat 09-08-2010 10:22 AM

That's just the problem -- you don't dare skip a day!!

Sharonsews 09-08-2010 10:23 AM

I agree that everyone has been very nice! One member sent me a pattern I had asked where to purchase! Thank you for all the help and information. I love seeing all the finished items on here. I hope to soon add one of my own!

ann clare 09-08-2010 10:59 AM

I agree with you. Love coming on here.

mimiof3 09-08-2010 12:11 PM

I agree w/all. Everyone is so helpful. Love seeing the quilts and the tutes are great. Been on a week and have learned so much already (not saying i'll remember hahahaha)I really do enjoy this board.

MadQuilter 09-08-2010 12:16 PM

I decided that the next time I'm in a really bad mood, I'll come here and show my true colors to help disspell this myth of niceness. So just watch out. LOL!

hikingquilter 09-08-2010 01:28 PM

I agree with everyone: this is a great message board. I haven't been a member very long and I have already picked up some great hints, good tutorials and seen sooo many beautiful quilts made by so many wonderful stitchers! I'm not usually a joiner, as in clubs and guilds etc, but I do like to exchange ideas with others with the same interests. This site is so helpful to everyone and encouraging to those who are doubtful of their abilities or just hitting a creative slump (we all get those occasionally). A really positive place to be!

CoventryUK 09-08-2010 01:47 PM

I agree with all the comments!! This is a fantastic place to be among likeminded friends. It certainly beats housework and is the BEST therapy!! Thankyou all!!

littlelambseativy 09-08-2010 02:15 PM

Yes, this is a great place! I always feel like I'm with a room full of friends, and yes, even sisters! Oh, maybe some brothers(?).

It's fantastic! I can't tell you how many times I have referred to information I've gained here. Many minds can do great things!

You just 'have to' go check out the 500+ pages of older photos! I did that the other night, and hours flew by, while I oooohed! and Ahhhhed! It is a definite 'must do" for newbies. Enjoy! So much inspiration!

Annz 09-08-2010 05:22 PM

Yes I agree.

wvdek 09-08-2010 05:23 PM

Wow, how nice. Thank you.

desertrose 09-08-2010 05:25 PM

I'm like you I've been a member a few months also and I love reading all the positive feedback. If I've had a tough day reading this message board always puts a positive spin on the day. Love you all even if I don't know you.

This group is great! Wonderful, helpful funny people.

Joeysnana 09-08-2010 06:30 PM

This is the first site I check in the morning and the last one at night. Heaven forbid I should miss something!! :)

leiladylei54 09-08-2010 06:49 PM

Yes, I agree......this is one of the first things I check in the morning and then again before I go to bed. Sure don't want to miss anything!!! And everyone is really so very nice, too. What a great place to be a member of, huh???

lynnie 09-08-2010 07:01 PM

i agree with you 100%. I cannot explain how all of you made me feel when my cat died. No one ma fun of me, and everone was sooo totally sympathetic. Because of all of you, we were able to move on so much more quickly than other fur baby deaths we've experienced. thank you again all so much, i don't know where i would be without all of you

denilynne 09-08-2010 07:04 PM

I agree, these are the most friendly people and helpful too, i've learned alot and i'm not afraid to ask a stupid question lol as i am kinda new at this, but i always get an answer or suggestion from someone.

Addiction is probably the best word for this Board. What a wonderful family we have all formed, brought together by our love of quilting. So happy to be here.
I love you all. Blessings, Donna

Donna, have you been to Mary Jo's?
