Great place to be even if it is only for a few minutes (I wish!!). Nice to have friends to share your hobby with.

I spend a lot of time reading the posts and looking at the pictures because I really enjoy it. I live alone now that hubby past away and have no regime to follow. I may not get as much quilting done as I did before finding this board but I like the company it brings and really want to get to know more about all of you. One of these days I will post some pics of my quilting because I should be sharing like the rest of you. Working on my first PP that I actually enjoy.

Don't mean to complain though because when I got found I had cancer I didn't know if I would still be here. Love this site. I've learned so much from you guys! Really glad I found this site.

You go, Girl. Just keep moving. I'm a cancer survivor and a stroke survivor ( and a retired first grade teacher!!!). You gotta keep moving as much as you can. This board has been good medicine for me. It's a place where I can talk "quilts" as well as anything else. I've learned a lot and have felt all of the love and kindness from everyone.

Well this is what I intend to do but find myself on the board sometimes for 2 hours or more.
Are you in charge of your time or are we all influenced and held captive by our love of quilting.

I am so happy to find a world out there that is like me. Instead of feeling guilty for spending so much time on the computer (mostly on this board!) I will keep saying I AM IN CHARGE of my time, I can do as I please. Now, if I can just get mor quilting done...

I use the board as a reward for getting things done.
