Hi, I'm a new quilter and new to the board but I can see this will be as addictive as my stitching addiction.

I live north of Denver and a friend started me on the 2008 Thimbleberries club at Patchworks in Lafayette. The quilt still isn't done but I will be working on it again once I finish the top for my daughters Christmas present (what can I say, she got parts for Christmas). I have however finished a flannel quilt for my first grandchild (arriving in April) and have the stuff to make a Hungry Caterpillar quilt for her first Christmas.

Off to explore more.

Welcome to the board, from St. Louis! You will get losts of inspiration here! Just make sure you leave some time for quilting, and don't spend ALL your time on the board, as I am apt to do some days! :?

Welcome to the board from Southern California. Used to live in Northglenn, back in the late 80's. Two of my children were born at Fitzsimmons Army Hospital. We finally sold our home there about 3 years ago.

Hi and welcome from Texas. I have 2 of the Thimbleberries' quilts, uncut, in my sewing room closet. I put all the directions in the bags with the fabric at the end of both years. I didn't sign up this year :D . I love the fabrics, just had too many other irons in the fire to get to the quilts. Good luck with yours.
