Hello, I am also from Michigan, Rochester Hills exactly. My call is also gma except I am gmajudyjohn. I am a grandmother so it seemed fitting. Isn't MI beautiful this time of the year. Should be for the next six weeks or so. I am a fairly new quilter. I started 20 years ago but family and job kept me from persuing. I am now retired and have time to give it my best. I have about 7 projects in various stages. Must get busy and finish a couple so I can get started on Christmas presents.
