New, hoping to learn a lot
Hello,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I am brand new to this forum. Just found it the other day and decided it looks very friendly and helpful.
I am a SAHM to two kids. One is in first grade, the other is in pre-school. My husband is a self employed contractor. We live in the middle of the Heartland.
I can't wait to get to know everyone and learn so much from you. Oh, and I can't wait to join the Quilt club either. I really want one of those quilt blocks showing on my user profile area.
Hopefully, there will be some challenges to finish projects already started and focusing on using up fabric stashes and projects already purchased.
Thanks for letting me join.

Beautiful avatar, so many quilts are really a work of art.
Welcome, hope you make yourself at home!

Hi from FL! I think you're going to feel right at home here at the FV!
There really is lots to learn, and from the looks of your avatar, I get the feeling you'll have lots to contribute too. WOW! Now that's a gorgeous quilt! 
I am SOOOO jealous of you quilters. 
It must be a very relaxing hobby. I just don't even know where to begin to learn 
. Well maybe I'll find a class somewhere, someday!
So welcome aboard. I look forward to seeing more of your posts!
