Hey everyone. I'm Lynda from near Toronto, Canada.

I have been quilting for 17 years and started sewing cosplay last year. Looking forward to being here.

Hello @LyndaJ . Another North American!  We're practically neighbors. I'm in California.  :hug:

I do a bit of quilting too. I love cosplay!  I hope you'll tell us about some of your makes.

Hello @LyndaJ and welcome to our little place.

I visited my sister who lives in Pickering last year and my nieces took me to Toronto and many other places.  Love the double-decker GO trains.

Thank you Brenda. That quilt I named Garden Star was pieced while my mother-in-law was dying. We didn't know she was terminal at first which was when I got started. I ended up donating it to the hospice where she passed away.
