just joined the group

Hi. I am a new member. My name is Fran and I have been quilting for about
2 years. My friend Joanna who is in the group has me addicted to quilting
but I have a lot to learn. I live in Alberta, Canada, and also do
woodworking, make magnetic jewelry and about every other craft possible. I
have two grown married children and 3 beautiful grandchildren. Hope to
leave a lot for this group.

Thanks

Welcome to the group!

One of the first things to learn... don't announce when you vacation
(unless your stash is heavily guarded)!

Another early lesson to learn -- a bribe of chocolate can accomplish much!

Seriously -- we're glad you found us. Me -- I'm in Michigan, have 3 sons
(one still at home), have been quilting for about 7 years. Married for 30
years (yikes -- that seems like a really LONG time when I write it down!).
We have an almost year old lab puppy -- Samson (you can see pics in my
webshots album).

I'm certain you'll learn a lot here.. and some of it may even apply to your
quilting! :-)

Welcome, Fran! This is a pretty wild place, but make yourself at home.
(Just keep that rotary cutter and quilting needle handy...)

Hi Fran
Welcome.
I'm in Alberta too. A little southwest of Joanna.

I haven't had a lot of quilting time in the last couple of years, but still
collect fabric for the stash and patterns and magazines for "someday". I am
still addicted.

Do you happen to know when the Red Deer Quilt Show is? I missed it last
year, cause I didn't hear about it ahead of time.

My DH & I have 16 kids, 23 grandkids and 5 more on the way.
2 golden retrievers, and 1kitty cat. Life is full!
