Welcome, Gloria!

I'm in California and generally speaking, only see everyone in February at the Retreat.  

As to what to do next, read everything there is to read and join in when you feel like it.    The more you chat, the more everyone gets to know you and can more easily harass you.  Errr .. no.  Strike that.  Only SOME people will harass you.  I'm not one of them.   You'll figure out the others soon enough. :-)

?Cough...........cough!! 

 Hi Gloria, welcome to the group! I have some very important advice for you…under no circumstances should you let anyone here know what your LEAST favorite color is! Just a little PSA 

Glad to hear that all has gone well with your surgery and that your knee continues to improve.

Hi, Gloria.  Nice to see you here.  I met you at the Flying Pig.  I will miss the one later this month as I will be in Texas.  I live in Gilbert so have not joined the guild.  Hope you will enjoy getting to know us better and chatting about what we love most, quilting. 

To those of you who do not know, I will be missing in action here until Oct. 1.  I will be in Texas "not babysitting" my 18 yr old granddaughter.   She will be in school or working most of the time.  I hope to see her occasionally.  There are 4 dogs that will be my company.  I am taking sewing projects along.  Hope I can get most of them on to the next stage.  Having lunch with Johanna and Sandy Tuesday in Arlington.  Dee, I know you are working, any chance you can join us?  I'm not taking my computer so won't be on the forum until I return.  I'll let you know what I managed to get done when I get back.

"...chatting about what we love most, quilting. "

Oh, I dunno... chocolate is pretty high on my list.
