Hi from Wirral in northwest England! I love all kinds of crafting. I love sewing, crochet, knitting, weaving and patchwork and quilting.  I’ve really missed meeting friends at the P&Q weekly group and the loss of the chance to learn at workshops and courses. I’m currently trying to finish a quilt for my daughter and her fiancé which I’ve been working on for 5 years!  :)

Welcome to TSP @Patchworkfairy  Do tell us more about this quilt, and pictures if you can.  There are plenty of folks on the 'darkside' who do P&Q to help you get it finished.

Looooving your moniker @Patchworkfairy  .....

Welcome from me too. :) You do know that joining TSP won't necessarily help you finish your quilt, don't you? We're very good at sidetracking people on to other things. :rolleyes:
