Just seen a post from the former 'Greybird' over on the PatternReview thread I started re TSF.  If anyone knows her in real life, perhaps they could let her know about this place.

If she's on the thread, she can read the links there to this place. It sounds like she is happy to stay on PR. I'm a bit wary now because there has been a lot of moaning for anyone trying to get people to come over here. So perhaps best to leave her to enjoy PR and find her way here when she wishes?

I don't understand why anyone would moan about pointing folk in this direction - it makes us sound like a cult  -<

Surely they can just come if they want to, or not if they don't!

That's what I would think to but I think a lot of people don't like the fact we sprung up at a tumultuous point.

You have a point, but I remember that Greybird was an avid poster on TSF.  As I have sworn off that PR thread (I said I would not be commenting any further), I can't go back because 'a certain person' would take delight in pointing this out to me.   0_0

In any event, I think Greybird will find her way here via someone else.

Yes, I tend to think that those who want to be here will find their way, and be made very welcome  :)

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

I posted on the Pattern Review thread to direct her here  :D  I don't care if it stirs things up, it is now a lot of weeks since TSF disappeared and I'm finding it ever harder to believe it will return.

I'm here! Many thanks to the kind person who directed me here, and how nice of you all to be concerned. I'd like to stay please! It's so nice to see all the names I've been missing. I am halfway through my daughter's curtains, but I think they might have to wait a bit longer while I catch up with everything.
