QuilterBridget said… Hi Mary Ann~thanks for adding me as a friend! I've met so many wonderful people here....I just love it and visit practically every day. This is the only thing I do on the internet besides shop! I don't use facebook or anything like that, so I have more time to come here. I never did find a quilting group in my area. There is a guild in Portland, but that's over 2 hours away from here!
I'm glad you stopped by! This place has really grown a lot since I first joined. Anyway, thanks again for adding me as a friend :)

Happy birthday, Mary Ann~I hope you have a wonderful day!
I'm Bridget and I live in Seaside, Oregon. It's a small town without a guild, quilting groups or classes, so I figured this site would be the next best thing. It's been great meeting so many people! Everyone is so friendly and helpful!
I started quilting 6 years ago after I had to take an early retirement due to health reasons; I made one quilt and was hooked from there! There are so many things I want to learn; one thing I think would help would be a block-a-month-club as you mentioned doing. I think that would help me to learn a variety of new techniques.
Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and happy birthday!
