    I joined last month but have been real busy so late in introducing myself.
    Not a real new quilter been plugging away for over 10 years, self taught with books. Started collecting fabric, books and patterns long before I
    actually began. Our living room has been turned into my studio and it
    spread to the guest bedroom across the entry hall. My kids are all gone
    but I'm the care taker of my DH who had a stroke over 7 years ago.
    Now to learn the ins and outs of the message board!!

    Oh never too busy for quilting I squeeze that in somehow.
    When I'm super busy the internet and computer play is put
    aside. I can spend a lot of time looking at all the blogs and
    photos people publish.

    welcome, welcome. how great that you can be there for your husband and have a studio right there handy.
    your husband is fortunate to have you.
    hang in there, i know it isn't always easy.
    keep quilting, it is the best therapy :-)

    I get lost in my quilting for sure. Looking forward to this Winter when there will be less interruptions. The best therapy in the world involves
    fabric of any kind!!!

    Hi Freda:
    'Welcome to the board even if I'm wayyyyy late in welcoming you. Haven't see your name come up so don't know if you are still with us. Hope so. Hope all is going well with your DH. Quilting will really help relax you when you have the time to do it. Welcome.
