Thanks Gina, yours arrived in my mail box yesterday. It's lovely - love the way you used my 'name'. It is appropriate for this time of year - or that's what I tell everyone..... Will post a picture of them when all in.

Profile Information
- What aspect of textiles are you interested in?
- I love anything to do with threads and materials, especially learning from others and using different techniques. I cross stitch, crochet, embroider, quilt, used to knit a lot. Another love of mine is collecting old embroideries, needlework items especially thimbles and patterns.
- Where did you learn your textle skills?
- Mainly self-taught - have participated in a few workshops, both on-line and in class and from the huge stack of books I have. I was taught to sew, knit and crochet when young from an Auntie who was very nimble with her fingers.
- Anything else you want to say to introduce yourself to the group??
- I have retired from working full-time and it is not hard to find time to do things that I love! After being asked many many times, I now have a blog (as from June 2009) and have promised myself to try and post at least once a week. The name reflects where I live!!

Christine Davey said… - Thank you Joy for the lovely ATC and the postcard showing where you live. Beautiful coastline. I looked on the atlas to find out where you are !
Why do you owe me another ATC ? Have I missed something ?

Gina E. said… - Hi Joy, I really envy you going off on this quilting trip to the USA - to ANYwhere!
Just as well, there are no more Birthday postcards until January - you don't have to think about that in advance. Pallavi's was the next one due in December, but as she hasn't sent any out, I've crossed her off the list.
