    Hi, I've been quilting for about 10 years off and on. I was directed to this site from someone at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Patternsearchandswap/ and decided I had to join. I miss attending the quilting guild I used to belong to. It moved to a smaller venue a couple of years ago that was further from home and I just stopped going. I'm hoping this site will fill that void.

    I have two gorgeous children, a DD 15 and a DS almost 13, and a wonderful hubby who doesn't complain too much about the amount of money I spend on fabric.

    I don't have as much time to quilt as I would like, with two teens in sports, and studying to become a cardiology tech, but I squeeze in what I can.

    Hi and welcome cynde! Looks like I'm not the only one up late tonight. :) Isn't it nice to have a dh who doesn't mind that a little (or not so little) goes out now and then to support our habit? I hope you find the time now and then to indulge in your passion for quilting, but it sounds like you have a lot on your plate right now. I hope you enjoy the little family of quilters here. :)

    Well thank you for the nice welcome.

    I will post some pictures of my work as soon as I figure out how. I remember seeing something about posting pictures, I hope I can find it again.

    I have to get the details for the next set of photos, ie whose pattern, which class they were from.

    Thank you lin, I would love to post some of my earlier work too, even tho it's not as good. But those photos were taken before I got a digital camera and we don't have a scanner.

    How do you put the picture in with your identification so it show up when you post?
