Popping in to say Hi...

Hello!  I just wanted to pop in and say as I am new to SAL. I am both nervous and excited, I have only just started quilting but I am getting very addicted to it.  When I saw the project that everyone would be working on and with a little encouragement from my friend Suzietee I just had to join in.
Can't wait to see what everyone does, its going to be so much fun.
Love me :-)

Welcome!
It is fun to see all the different fabrics we gals choose to use. I've made lots of friends since I joined at the beginning. I haven't been quilting long either and I've not done much applique so I am a little nervous about this new one, also.
