Wildyard, That so beautifully articulates how I feel about this board and the wonderful friends I have found here. It occurs to me that what you have described is a family....and I truly believe that is what we, the members of this board, have become. Families support one another through bad times, share the joy of good times, and care for one another. Sometimes one family member gives support to another, then later, needs support and encouragement themselves, and the family dynamics shift to offer that member the support they need....all I can say is, I am truly blessed to be part of this family.

This board has been a life saver to me, also. I get up in the morning and tune in to see what everyone else has been doing. I love the suggestions as to help and the laughter, and the tears, it makes me feel as if I belong to a whole big family. Even if I don't always reply.

Beautifully said. I do not always reply on here but I read a lot and I feel the same. I can be me here and I know I am not judged by my mistakes in sewing or weakness knowledge. This is a great board and I spend way too much time on here.

This post literally brought tears to my eyes! I have been going through some life challenges lately - having to give away my three cats because of a new husband's allergies - and am probably more emotional than usual. Reading this post made me realize that I am not the only one who loves the support and help I get from everyone here. Thank you all for your encouragement, inspiration, and wisdom!

I am still very new to the QB, but I have learned so much just by reading. Since I have joined, I have asked for help a couple of times and got responses immediately. I do think this is a wonderful group and plan on enjoying it for a long time. - Cynthia
