Carol, welcome to our chat family!

Glad you connected. Always fun to meet another stitcher.

Happy that you found this site. There so many stitchers-men and women who give great tips. Warning-cross stitch is addictive. Pam

Hi Carol:
It was great to talk to you at Michaels. Welcome to the chat room. It's great to have a new person join our chat room where the atmosphere is always sunny and bright. Sometimes we have a dark moment and there's where we all pull together and make someone else smile or cry with them. We're family here. WELCOME!
Thanks for the message.
Jackie

Hi Jackie and everyone, thanks for responding, I know I'm going to love it here - cross stitch & friends too! Sorry it took so long to respond, but I usually check my emails from work (hence the odd hours-I work night shift at the hospital) and I've been off for a few days. This is my first chat room experience and it will more than likely be my only one. I'm a little leary of most things on the internet but I think you all are great. I am so excited that I found an old pattern I was working on a few years ago, and for some reason stopped and gave it away. It was an afghan safari, and it was done block by block, and then you (somehow) hooked it all together at the end. This is a project that will surely take awhile, and I will have some questions about joining the pieces much later. Anyway, I can't believe I found it online because I bought the one I had at a thrift store (love those places). I am going to order it although I probably won't start on it for a while. How I do ramble on. Talk to you guys later, Carol

This is the only chat room that I go on. It is the only one I trust. The people are nice and they always have a tip when you need help. Pam
