Title: Hi, I'm CCL
Post by: CCL on January 03, 2019, 13:36:37 PM
Born southwestern US, grew up sewing cottons.   Live in NorthEast US, and love sewing wool. 

Spotted a number of familiar user names here so thought I would join the conversation.

Thank you all for the warm welcome - and it's so good to see you Lyn-J and Manuela

Below is just a quick test if I can post photos from Flicker in a table here.  And please forgive me if I am overstepping Sewing Place etiquette...Made the jacket and dress last year, the skirt many years before.

Oh, it's so really great to see familiar names -- Saashka and HelenM!   Thank you for such kind welcomes, Greybird, fajita,  Surest1tch and Nevis5.  It will take me a bit to poke around and discover all the corners and conventions here, but I am really looking forward to sharing the love of sewing with you all.
