    Welcome from Roscoe, IL! I was laid off 1/31 and I understand. I don't know how old you are, but I think I have officially retired. Good to have you here, and you will meet so many wonderful people!

    Thank you all for the warm welcome and support.

    For those that asked where I live in VA, I'm in Richmond.

    Marcia, to answer your question about if I have dachsy, not at this time. Our last one passed away several years ago, but recently we've been talking about getting another one (or two, or three!).

    Welcome, Sylvia, from St. Louis! This is a great place to get you fired up to finish things that have been lingering. :lol:
    The economy is not user friendly right now. Praying that things brighten up along with the Spring. :lol:
    I need to light a fire under myself to do the clean up stuff, and finish things! :lol: I just keep finding new things I want to do! :lol:

    :P

    Hi, My name is Bernice and I live in Spruce Grove, Alberta and I love to quilt. I like to learn new techniques and hear new ideas from other quilting ladies. I belong to a County Quilters of Stony Plain, Alberta and it is a great place. :)
    I am older and I can't believe I didn't get into quilting sooner.
    I like to golf in the summer. I would be happy to hear from any quilter and I look forward to all the great ideas that quilting ladies accidently or intentionally discover.

I'm also working on a baby quilt for a friend's baby that was born in September. Again, just have to do the hand quilting to finish it up. And there are several projects stacked up after these! So I have my work cut out for me (no pun intended! :D )

    Sounds like me! Welcome from N California, and please post pictures soon!


    Welcome Bernice!!!
