    Welcome. I too am 50 but I live in California. It's really a lot of fun interacting with other fabric addicts

    Francesca:
    Welcome from Argentina in South America. I am a New York girl retired here with my husband. I am a fabric addict too and although new to quilting I love it!!
    You will love this forum, everyone is wonderful and always ready to help or give an opinion when asked.
    Hope to talk to you again. They also have a chat forum and that should pop up when you are here in the quilting forum. You can send private messages here too. Just click on the persons name and look at the bottom of the screen you will see a button for private messages.
    I love it here and hope you will too. Post us some pictures of your work we would all love to see them. It is easy to do. If you need help just ask.
    And finally, GIRL YOU DO NOT HAVE TO APOLOGIZE FOR ANYTHING!! Your english is just fine, probably better then my spanish, tee hee :lol: .

    Welcome Francesca, from St. Louis, Missouri, USA. Isn't it wonderful that we all speak the language of fabric! :lol: We are fortunate here to have so many resources. I was just on a shop hop last weekend where a friend and I visited 12 quilt shops in the general area of St. Louis, and there are several more not on the list we did not go to! My mind is still reeling from all the beauty!

    Welcome from Argentina. So do your cats sit on the quilts while you are working on them? Do they walk across your keyboard and sit in front of your screen while you are on line? My siamese use to do that, boy do I miss her.

    I do the same thing, buy my material on line and have it shipped here. No one quilts here in Argentina and I can not get 100% cotton with designs on it. Bummer, I really miss the USA.

    Thank you.
    :D
    Where in the world are you?.
    Do you do lots of quilting. I have just started sewing again after an accident with my finger with the electric hand blender.

    Hi Penny
    Thank you for the welcome
    LOL yes my cats sit and watch me quilting and sometimes roll on top of the pieces while i am laying them out. And they love to sit on the keyboard and i make lots of spelling mistakes because of them :D

    Welcome! I think you are going to like it here. And of course we will love having you. There are so many great ideas on the board and some many friendly people. And so much to learn!

    I used to live in Vicenza, Italy (when my husband was in the army.) I LOVE Italy. It was so hard to leave. I've been to Milano a couple times. It seemed like a great place to live.

    Ciao Bella!!
    Linda
