This board IS your mentor - but it is nice to have a special person also. I am so thrilled with this site because I have the opportunity to see the most awesome quilts, to find answers to questions, to share and have so many share with each other. There are several tutorials to look at as well and some quilters have posted web sites to find patterns and other tutorials. I wish I could personally thank every one that shares so much on this board, so I will just say it now - THANK YOU.
