A Favor of you Please

Hi Diana!
First, please e-mail me. My mail has bounced. Thanks.

Now to answer your questions ... I must be brief so as not to
aggravate the Tendonitis in wrist. (BTW: It is NOT Carpal Tunnel
.... Thank Heavens! ... but still needs some consideration.)

PART ONE, RCTQ:

I came to RCTQ because DH was tooling around and came across it
and enrolled me. I read a few times but didn't realize *I* could
answer, so forgot about it. I had NO idea about newsgroups,
lists, and so on. I probably never even introduced myself, as the
whole www subculture was a foreign place to me!! Came across RCTQ
again and someone mentioned answering, so I tried it and the rest
is history!! (I haven't shut up since LOL!!) That was in early to
mid 1999 ... I got into the Millennium Swap and collected my
2000+ squares. Haven't made the quilt yet though. I stayed around
because it is fun, entertaining, educational, and friendly.
Sometimes I get into swaps or do squishies. I've enjoyed
getting/giving advice on quilting techniques. Several have
mentioned these things already, but I don't think anyone has
mentioned the opportunity to 'meet' people with TOTALLY different
lifestyles, as well as people who may have similar families but
live in far continents. This place affords opportunities never
even dreamed by my fore parents! Oh, not only has it been fun to
visit on line, and in the real mail, but I've even met quite a
few of you at quilt shows and other activities. Yep, I like it
here.

Will talk about actual quilting next time. Gotta put this hand
through the Physical Therapy exercises now.

Take care of yourself too! PAT in VA/USA

Im recovering well... certain things coming in the mail keep my spirits up,
thank you muchly! But the days linger long sometimes. I havent energy to do
much yet, but you, yes YOU, have the power to entertain and amuse me if you
feel like it, and I hope you do...
Would you please tell me how you came to post at RCTQ, and why you stay, and
how you came to be a quilter and what you hope to find in your quilting
future. Maybe everyone else will get some pleasure in reading these .. then
I wont feel so selfish! lol
Thanks in advance,
Diana the slightly bored
