Hi, I have to tell a funny on myself. When I first found this site, I thought all of you Cuties were local and friends. As time went on I realized differently. So many projects, so much beauty etc. I thought you slept very little and stitched a lot! It took me awhile to realize that you are a worldwide community different time zones etc., and not just in my back yard. I have never been on the www except to look for things, recipes, sewing ideas, crafts...silly me. Now it's lucky me another nice freebie from the Wonderful Wide World of Cute. Thank you Ms Veronika. :p Leaha

Hi Lea, I'm so glad you were drawn to this site. I'm another Aussie living on the east coast of Australia in Newcastle, 2 hours north of Sydney the capital of New South Wales. One of the many things I love about this site is the friendships that have been formed through our love of sewing/embroidery etc. I've met Christie from Germany and of course our Meganne, Pauline (nonna57), Coral (olly) and Tubby! (another man!) One day I hope to meet some of our American cuties. I've been on here over 6 years and have gotten to know lots of amazing women. The different tabs that we can "talk" about things have been a real added bonus. Looking forward to seeing more projects from you. Love and blessings Chris, Newcastle, Australia.

Thanks, Miss Sally. You might as well be on the moon as only a half a world way. :)
24342As a new Cutie, I just want to say hi to everyone. I'm just starting to learn my way around. Cuties seem to be a very friendly and polite group, such a refreshing change from some other sites. I wish everyone a great evening and hope to get a chance to chat.

I will say welcome to you and hope you find this site as lovely and fun as I do. I don't think there is anything they can't or won't do to help if it is possible.

Thank you everyone for all the welcomes. I am enjoying reading the posts and glad to see people from all over the world.
10990I did too, I thought I had found some secret club and couldn't figure out why the number by my name kept getting bigger! It was back when you rec'd a flower when you visited, I think it was every 24 hours. It was well over a year before I even made my first post, but I sure got to know everyone. The site has changed over the years but it is my "comfort" place and am so thankful I stumbled upon it. Hugs...Carol

Isn't this a hoot, I couldn't figure out what they were either or where they were coming from...just assumed magic and fairy dust. Thanks for sharing this.
12165When I first joined many years ago I thought it was like a local quilt guild only for embroiderers -- I was afraid to post as I thought I would be intruding. Then one day I got brave...The freebies brought me here -- the Cuties keep me here.
Hugs and flowers for all!

We do have a gentleman or two that frequently post here. I suspect we may have a few more lurking in the shadows and unwilling to brave the welcome of a newbie post. Dennis could use the company though.

OOOOOOPs sorry mr. Denis999 and any other gents out there. No disrespect intended. I personally had no idea that men sewed or embroidered...in exposure at this end. This is wonderful and again I learn new things today.
140717115775Nice...never thought I would have so many friends to support me worldwide!
