    Hi, I am Kim! New to this site and pretty new to quilting. I am trying to make more time in my life for quilting, because it makes me so peaceful and happy! I am 44 and a stay at home mom of two boys, 17 and 21. Not many people in my area quilt, so I am looking forward to connecting with other like-minded women! :D

    Hi Kim Marie,
    I'm new to quilting, too. I think I have become addicted to quilts...lol. I'm 53 and live in Ohio. I am homemaker and was a stay at home mom, too. But, my kids are adults and out of the house now. (A daughter that's 33 and a son that is almost 24.) It's nice to meet you. Happy Quilting!
    Debbie

    I used to live in the Twin Cities area. Have you considered joining the MN Quilter's Guild? Here is their website:

    Glad Creations is a fun quilt shop in Minneapolis.

    If you want to reply to just one person, it is called "private messages" or pm. Click on the person's name by their avatar. That will take you to their profile page. Then click on PM and you can communicate with just that one person, and not the whole board.
