You bring up a good point - Chattanooga and other TN towns/cities are not all that far away from north AL (or eleswhere) so I don't see why the more the merrier can't work :)
There's also an active Modern Quilt Guild in Atlanta that meets monthly (I think) if anyone is on the border and wants to travel there.
