I set this forum up yesterday, see what you think. It is a free forum and is pretty userfriendly. I will administrate it for now, but will be looking to pass it over to someone else if anyone is interested.

Hope to see you there :bg:

Wendy and I have joined forces and streamlined our plan -- after I get my bearings a bit on the new sewing friends board, I will take over as administrator. Then some time in the not too distant future, I will be setting up a new site on www.sew-whats-up.com (not too much there yet, but we do own the site now). So, please join us over on the sewing friends board!

I was hoping you two would get together. It seemed like the perfect solution! I am absolutely thrilled! :bg:

Boy, how long ago did Mary make that announcement??? Can't believe how quickly things have come together since then. What an amazing bunch we have here. :love:

Thanks, ladies, for everything so far and for what the future holds.

Yesterday I signed up for Wendy's site. It said I would get a confirmation in about 5 minutes.
The confirmation never came.
I checked my spam bucket and it is not there either.
I tried to re-register and it says my user name and email are already used.
When I log in it appears to take it ,but when I try to post an introduction it says I must register first.
Any Ideas how to correct this?

barbara,
how frustrating for you, I'm sorry. I did set it manually, and I just checked, you are set as a member, so I'm not sure what it going on, I've not had this happen before. Please PM me your email address and I'll see what I can do OK? We'll get it figured out!:bg:

I had the same problem Barbara had when I first joined so I tried again with another name and it worked just fine.

barbara, I haven't heard from you, but wanted to let you know that I can delete your membership and let you try again (which is what I'd like to try), or you can try a different name/email address. I just need to hear from you before I do anything.

I've sent a private email to Jan. We email once in a while and I thought that if by chance she checks her email and not the boards while on vacation I could give her a heads up.

Oh Belinda! You've got some catching up to do. Check out the post "Notice to all members" by Mary and go from there. Barb initially set up a forum at Yahoo temporarily but it looks like we'll be settling in (for now) at Wendy's (SewsforKate) site which she and Kaitlinnegan are co-hosting. Please join us.
