I received the Country Threads Stitchery issue I ordered from Erica's Quilt Shop in Indiana this week. It has been awhile since I have read one. I have many other old Country Threads Stitchery issues going back many years that I continue to look at with fond memories. Many of them given to me by my "Dear Friends"from all over Australia. I lived in Australia for a short time and I am still a member of the "Southern Cross Quilters" Online list and it is here that I met so many of these "Dear Friends". When I was accepted into the Southern Cross Quilters Online list I had NO idea that I would be so "Warmly Welcome" and some of these ladies would end up being my "Life Long Friends and Sisters!!!"... Many have come half way around the world to meet me. I feel very blessed and honoured to have these "Special Friends" in my life. A warm hug to you all. Judy
