    welcome from Ohio. There should be a warning on the board. You will get a lot of help and ideas, so much so it will take over all of your free time. :-) Good luck with trying to balance.

    I was wondering about how I can drive the car and quilt at the same time? (grandson is 3 and 1/2 hrs away.)I can't stand to sit still and not be stitching.

    I am glad you are here. Just one suggestion. When planning what to join - or more importantly what to leave out, always inclued twice as many minutes, 3 times as much money, and postage. (The extra money is for the fabrics you will see while shopping for any one project. It happens.)

    If you have children? Plan your time as if they were all sick, one after the other for weeks on end.

    HEheheheheheh. I'm glag I'm not the only one hooked on this board and my sewing machine. Gwyn

    Well, I used to think that when I retired, I wouldn't have anything to do. Since starting quilting, I figure I will have enough quilts and ideas to last until Jesus comes! ha. I won't have to wonder what to do with my time.

    You are welcome! Welcome to the wonderful club of quilting. I have a T shirt that says it all: "I do not suffer from insanity I enjoy every minute of it." I like this board very much because everyone has encouraged me greatly just be reading others and seeing the pics of the quilts. THANKS!!!!!!!

    Since I started hanging around this board a couple weeks ago, my once-upon-a-time much beloved hobby has became almost an obsession! I see all the beautiful quilts, BOMs, tips and suggestions, enouragement, support, friendship, laughs, comiseration, creativity, and I just can't help it! I already had a lot of things I wanted to do/try, but that mental list has grown exponentially!! I'm considering setting up a second machine in my "work area" so I'm ready to do more, try more, create more!

    Just want to say thanks everybody!

    One other thing I forgot: I had my wisdom teeth out 2 days after Christmas and have had problems with infections so I am able to get back on the Board and catch up on stuff. Thanks!!!
