Congratulations to all as they make these wonderful life changes. This board has been in great hands in the past and we are all grateful. The future admin looks to be vibrant, energetic and open to forward looking and we welcome you as well with open arms. We have been a very fortunate group to have such caring wonderful people create and continue with this board. Thank you all that put your energy into making this a positive, learning, caring, sharing place to be.

Congratulations and THANK YOU Konstantin! Teach that new bride to love quilting so the two of you can at least remain Quilting Board members.

Welcome TaliaRose! Hope you enjoy this... Your kitties are so darned cute!

Thank you for the warm welcome. They are all grown up now... and still cute!!

Congratulations Konstatin on upcoming wedding wishing you and your bide-to-be all the happiness. Thank you for creating this wonderful community and bringing us all together.

I am happy Patrice that you will continue on to keep us on the up and up.

Welcome Talia Rose congratulation on your new position. Hope you have as much fun as we have coming to this everyday.

Awwwhhh....Gorilla love!!! Welcome TaliaRose!

Whew -

After a busy day of quilting and not being on the board I sit down to rest and catch up with the latest. Was NOT expecting my breath to be taken away with the title of 'A Farewell to Konstantin" and .... well, let's just say my heart sank until I read the whole story. I can't imagine this board not being here, so am sooooo glad that is not the case.

Having said that --

Congratulations to Konstantin and his bride to be! What wonderful news there.

Patrice - so glad you are staying!

And a very warm welcome to TaliaRose! I love your name! It sounds like the name of a beautiful quilt!

Welcome Talia

Welcome TaliaRose and I wish you the very best here on the board. Wishing Gorilla Konstantin and his new bride many blessings and maybe you and she can drop in from time to time to say hello! PatriceJ, it is good to know that you will be helping with the transition and also keeping the position of Moderator. I just love this site and look forward for many more years of coming here.

Parting is such sweet sorrow, but you're embarking on a wonderful new life and I wish you and Mrs. Gorilla a long and happy life together. Thanks for all you've done for us.

A warm welcome to TaliaRose. As with all newcomers, I'm sure you'll find this a warm and cozy place to be and I wish you well.

All the best to Konstantin and his bride.

A warm welcome to TaliaRose.

A well-done and glad you are staying to PatriceJ (ever the voice of reason!).
