I am new to this site too. From Lima OH. I enjoy "Road Trips" with my quilting friend. WE usually plan something a couple of times a month. Exploring OH and looking for quilt shops in those areas. I have come to appreciate this state for the historical and natural features. One is never more than an hour away from an institution of higher learning. And we have lots of quilt shops, and just this past year one opened in my town. :)
