Yes, I have met several ladies and, in 2010, was able to meet them in person at the Hampton, VA (Convention Center) quilt show. I have met a special "Barbara" from Ohio. We e-mail and also talk on the phone. I have PM'd quite a few, asking questions about their Avatar, batting, pattern names and location, etc., and always appreciate the fast response. Charismah and Borntohandquilt do such beautiful quilting and both have been very kind to share things. Thanks to ALL of you for being such good quilting buddies and for sharing your quilting knowledge and ideas. Sue in VA
