I joined All Recipes back in 2001 and did not venture into the Exchange until the fall of 2008.  What an incredible journey in these twelve short months.  It has been a wonderful learning experience with the awesome opportunity to meet some great people.   The avatar used on the Exchange by me is our dog, Gus.  Of course he is the featured star on my quilt square as well. Denny & I are empty nesters so Gus gets all of attention these days.  We are rewarded by Gus with lots of laughs, sloppy kisses and undying affection - not to mention a very crowded bed.   The quilt project has been a very bonding and rewarding journey also.  To imagine so many of the AR people coming together on a non cooking adventure is just fantastic!  This project has encouraged even more friendships with all the lively discussions over the last several months.  Lots of friendly bantering going on!   Many thanks to Kitten and all of the devoted Quilt Team - untold hours volunteered - truly impressive.   May the lucky recipient of this group project feel the love and warmth of the whole AR community.   Blessings to all           Maggi
