Dear Farmgirls, My name is Carol and I live in Maryland. I am pretty new to the forum and thought I should introduce myself. I am trying to think of things to do to make my home more of a farmgirl home - and I realize it really already looks that way for the most part. I've started some gardening, and have some projects I'm working on - I'm going to crochet a few new dishcloths, and I'm currently making some yo-yos but haven't decided what I'll do with those yet. Also I ordered some of the vintage transfer patterns to embroider for my kitchen towels!!!
I spent half my life in southwestern Virginia with my grandparents who basically had a little farm. I loved it there, and my best memories are from the times I spent there and all the cool stuff I did with my grandma - she taught me how to can, how to crochet, how to embroider, how to cook on a wood stove, how to pick blackberries, and I could go on and on but I won't. She (my Grandma Lizzie) was the ultimate farmgirl to me!
Just wanted to say how much I love it here and how much I feel at home here. This is such a wonderful site. I just signed up to be an official member of the Farmgirl sisterhood!
Farmgirl Hugs,
Carol |

Take care and welcome again,

It's never too late to be what you might have been.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. |

Hi-Carol-you and I have a connection already---YO-Yos. I love them. I have made a throw for the couch, the top for a jumper, fronts for 5 vests, the neck of a blouse and front of a belt, purses, and now I am putting them on the aprons I make. They are so much fun.
I know you will love this site.

Welcome Carol,
Glad you found us! You sure are a busy farmgirl.
Growing up with your grandma s sounds just lovely. I can remember my granny's old wood cookstove but she got a "real" kitchen remodel when I was about 6, so I didn't learn how to use it.

Howdy from Texas Carol! We're so glad you made it. As I tell everyone, we've been waiting for you!
You can cook on a woodstove? whooooooa sweet! That's one of the things I want and want to learn how to do.
Anyway, welcome and come on in!
