    Smile Many thanks to Quilting Board members

    I have to check the Quilting Board every morning; hopefully, not being interrupted by my husband's yelling for more coffee. (He is wheelchair-bound.)

    I have learned so much here, but my 2 favorite and most used hints are:
    1.Folding fabric over quilting rulers
    2.Gluing seams and trims with Elmer's School Glue instead of pinning.

    There are many more, but these 2 hints are tops!

    Not only are there many wonderful hints, but isn't nice to feel the kinship from everyone.

    I agree with both of you. It's something to look forward to as we star each day.

    I have met so many wonderful people from the board! We get together in our area every other month just to gather on an afternoon and share and get caught up. We also take two weekends away each year, usually the beach, and go and just have a great time. It's so nice to go to local events with someone who share the same interest as you. We can send an email and say who's interested in going. It's such a nice circle of friends.

    I have received many good ideas, very helpful quilting points, help with questions, and shared patterns. I'm very thankful to have the board to go to when I need something or to be inspired with all the beautiful things people have made.

    Can I agree with all y'all? I'm not able to be out & about like I'd like to be (I have degenerative bone disease & it makes it impossible to drive & just getting out is a pain... literally... LOL!) so it's nice to have such a nice bunch of friends just a few mouse clicks away!
