Hello from a lurker
« on: June 11, 2018, 15:11:52 PM »
Hello...I hate doing this, so let's get it out of the way. I'm from Glasgow and I love sewing and knitting. I've lurked here for aaaaages, but I don't usually have much to say so didn't bother signing up until a few days ago. No idea why I changed my mind, but I'm here now. I'll be in the quiet corner if anyone needs me  :ninja:

Welcome Threadhead!  Don't be shy, we're all friends here!

Grab a brew, and a slice of cake if you want, and jump right in!

Look forward to seeing some of your projects!

Thanks everyone for the welcomes  :*

@Pearl - I sew mostly clothing, but will try my hand at anything that catches my eye. I also knit, but never got the hang of crochet sadly as I do love how it looks.

Hello Threadhead, Welcome, I’m just 35 miles or so north of you. I’ve found this group really helpful and quite sociable too. I mainly do craft type sewing , not clothes for myself at all, though I did when I was a teenager. Hope you enjoy being a member!

@Pearl - that is lovely. Maybe one day, eh?

@Sheilago - Hello neighbour(ish)  0_0 I've noticed there's a few fellow Scots on here, at least someone will understand me after a glass of wine then!
