My elbow and hand is in the same position. How am I going to pick my peas like this? lol

I do the same thing, so much inspirtation that I get very little sewing and quilting done. I say to someone who is foolish enough to say to me that I waste too much time looking, to take a hike. I have spent over the years so much time helping others, it is about me and what I enjoy doing now! You do what makes you happy!!!

Judylg you are so right. I think we all spend most of our time doing for others--even most of our quilts end up with other people. Since I semi-retired, I'm doing more for "me" and if that means sleeping in til 7:30 (after getting up at 5:30 for 38 yrs) or spending hours on the computer or sewing, so be it!!

I've been up since 5:30 (central) and been on since about 6:30. I look at all the beautiful pics and say "ohh I gotta do that"! and click to the next. I'd be the first to stand up and say, "Hi, my name is Amy, and I'm addicted to the quilting board!" I've learned sooo much since i've joined. Everyone is so wonderful. Welcome aboard!

Hi ladies! I got to know quilters by Facebook all over the world and now we would like to start a Round Robin. One quilter in California, in Malta, in Sweden, in Australia and me in France. The only thing I worrie about is: how safe will it be to sent quilts abroad.
Is there somebody who has any experiance?

Hah! 7:30 isn't sleeping in to me! That's getting up early! I'm a nightowl. I don't even take my Ambien CR until midnight, so I sleep till 8:30 or 9am.

I also just joined and have been sitting on my behind reading these posts, learning new things and looking at all the beautiful quilts that people have posted. I can't wait til I can post a quilt I have done, and can only hope that it measures up to all of these I have seen.
