Welcome to the QB. I live in southeastern PA and just joined this year. I am truly happy with this group. You will learn alot from this group so don't be afraid to ask questions and post pictures. You will get a lot of feedback. There are also a lot of great swaps that go on almost every month. There is one, it's a wall hanging swap where we actually have 4 months to complete one. Check out the thread for the Nov.-Feb. wall hanging swap. There are no restrictions, you can try out any new technique or block on these and the best part is = you get one sent to you also. Hope to see your name on some of the swaps.
