    no, you are not the only one. I have yet to post a pix. I just love reading and looking and awing over all the beautiful quilts and other items posted. I hope to have one posted SOMEDAY! I don't always post a reply to everyone out there. Everyone does such a beautiful job. How do you answer each one.

    I must confess, I am a "lurker" too---so you ae not the only one out there. I have asked questions and received lots of help from members of this board and I am so thankful for that. I haven't completed anything yet to show (except for one quilt top), but I drool over the pictures and projects that others have completed. It does encourage me to continue.
    The members have been so helpful...guess I had better introduce myself...next goal.

    Mine were beginner quilts with just as many mistakes as everyone else. It has taken 30 plus years to get where I am now and yes I still make plenty of mistakes and always will. I wish this outlet had existed back then!

    Silly Chubby Bunny ..... Among your many other talents, you are so talented in word-play, I don't think you would "run them off" .... You would tame them and "woo them into sensibility" with your gentle chastisement :)

    Sometimes the so-called "quilt police" are just knowledgeable folks who are trying to bring out the best in us .... Sometimes they are just busy-body-know-it(or nothing-)-alls ...... Sometimes they are just in our own mind and exist only to the extent we accept or reject the other's comment to begin with ....

    I find either or all types fun to watch/contemplate .... depending on my temper of the moment...

    Right here. I've been sewing since I was 12 (65 now) and doing machine embroidery for 17 years. Decided it was time to learn to quilt so I found this group to join. I was hoping I could learn from these ladies and gentleman. And believe me I have. I've learned that I was going to embark on a journey that I was never going to learn. The quilts and projects I see here are amazing. I just gave up the idea but still like to see all the beautiful things the group makes. I'd embarrass myself if I even attempted to quilt, if even a wallhanging.
