This looks like fun.! So many nice people.! I moved to the Birmingham, Alabama area 11 years ago for a job (from Ga, Miami, Calif, and NJ). I retired February 08 to take care of my Mom who had many strokes and is now bedridden. We have a Quilt Guild in Mt. Olive but so far I haven't been to go as I have been unable to get sitters to leave Mom. I am also Staff to 9 rescued cats who are great company. It seems like I read and talk and look at quilting things more than I actually quilt. I like other sewing and crafts and am a recycler and composter and cook and trying to do all the things I couldn't do before I retired.

Welcome from Pine Grove, CA!

Yes, I plead guilty. Sometimes, it seems like I spend more time thinking about the quilts I want to make then actually making them. (during that time, I might add, I am usually buying fabric for these future quilts----can you say, "stash is growing by leaps and bounds?") :mrgreen:

Welcome from northeast CA. Glad you joined us. Congratulations on taking care of your mother. We did that with my mom for 14 1/2 years.
