Title: Newbie from the UK
Post by: Trishmor on April 03, 2018, 10:06:05 AM
Hi to all and thanks for letting me join in this group.  I love sewing, particularly making garments and home products.  I have the Lutterloh system and am experimenting with this.  I have a Bernina (new model as my 1630 motherboard died - sob  :'() and an overlocker.  I am based in the NW UK (Greater Manchester) and would love to contact like-minded neighbours.

Cheers

Trish

Lowena I'm using a different 'layout' for the forum and it doesn't show a lot of info in the avatar. I've changed back but I find the other one easier to navigate and I couldn't remember how I'd changed it!

I can see it now!

Hi Trishmor and welcome from me. I'm a very distant neighbour now being in Bedfordshire (the place few can point a finger at on the map, I couldn't previously) but I lived my youth and my years as a young mum in Lancashire so, although I've been down here for decades, I'm still a northerner.

And I can't for the life of me understand why they spell Ooop like that - when I read it, it rhymes with poop!!!  >:)

Hello and welcome from a Stopfordian now resident in Kent. Wish I was closer to meet up. The Lutterloh system garments always look interesting. Hope you find lots to entertain you at the Sewing Place.

A big welcome from me too!  Another NWesterner here, not far from you.  I'm in Billinge, outside St Helens, and up the East Lancashire Road! 

Look forward to seeing some of your projects!
