Hello,


I'm new to the group, my fiance, Curtis, found the group and thought
I should take a look. So I thought I would introduce myself. Here
goes:

Marie, 46, I've been quilting for a couple of years and yes, I am
additcted. There are four great loves in my life, Quilting, Curtis,
Chocolate and Writing. The first two change rank on an hourly basis.

WELCOME!! We're glad that Chris pointed you in our direction! Come back often because there is
always something new to talk about!

A few questions for you?

Dark chocolate or Milk Chocolate?
Any QI's? (quilt inspectors -- usually pets)
What is your current project?
What part of this planet do you call home?

anyhow.... we're glad you're here!

Hello,

I have a sewing room that is under going an organization, so right now
the sewing machine is in the livingroom and my cutting table is the
dining room table. I do all sorts of projects, from wall hangings to
quilts. I can't say what I enjoy the most. As for now I do all the
quilting with my 25+ year old sewing machine, but I am looking into a
longarm quilting machine. I'll take all and any advice on which is
the best one to get.

I use Block Base software for the majority of my blocks. It was well
worth the investment. I buy the majority of my fabrics online. I
have LUPUS and my mobility isn't all that great. So if I can't get
out to the local JoAnn's I can still shop. Plus I get to see all the
great fabrics that JoAnn's doesn't carry, and most of all I can bargin
shop. I'm waiting for an order that I have those new SULKY
blendable threads. I can't wait to use them.

Well, enough for now. I'm on vacation and I'm having a temporary
feeling of guilt. So I'll go wash my dishes and it'll pass.

Happy Quilting Everyone!

Marie
