Any of the old time users still on here? From 20 years ago?
 

Way back there was a small group of us who would draw complex blocks to share and then we would construct those blocks using hand piecing and applique techniques. I miss that group. Anybody still here from that group?

You may be right, Patrice :) There have been so many changes over the years to the online groups. It seems the old group was called "Quilting Forum". Maybe I am confusing that one with this one. Does anyone know what I am talking about?

I think I got on sort of at the beginning. Many changes since then.

Are there any groups on here specifically for hand piecing and or needleturn applique? I tried to find one by searching the categories, but I may have missed something. Any help appreciated :)

20+ years ago (around Y2K) I was active on the Sewing World boards that had a similar format and many sub-categories. My husband came into my life and while I was busy building a RL relationship, Sewing World closed down. About 10 years after the honeymoon, I found Quilting Board and was happy to have found something similar. It seems like I've been here longer -- I've certainly seen some changes in membership and remember many "old names" but according to my info, looks like I joined in 2018.

I just looked at my account here and this is what it says for my join date: Join Date 01-18-2013 Since that is only 11 years ago, I am obviously thinking of a different forum :) Because of specific occurrences in my life, I know it was way longer than 11 years ago :) I live in a rural area and have tried locally to find people with similar interests, but have not had much success.

There are many that used to post here that i would love to be able to find on another forum..

Many ppl from here are also on these two forums that have been around forever....maybe helpful?

https://forum.missouriquiltco.com/ (maybe in groups tab?)

https://www.victoriansweatshop.com/ (look at quilting tab)

needle n thread used to have a forum...I think?

When I joined there were quite a few that were banned and never knew why. Most came back under a new name and different email so still here but very few knew the veteran members by the new name. I was here before the new board change over. A lot of members left then. I know some posters who joined in 2006.
