I was just wondering if you know of any quilting groups in the area. Top shelf quilts is in Frankfort but the open sew is on day's I work.
Well, just wanted to say hi.

Hi,
What a small world! We live just north of 151st and West Avenue. ( 4 blocks west of LaGrange). Just a few blocks away! When did you move out of Orland? We have been here 16 years. I wish I knew of some quilting groups out here. I have also been to Top Shelf Quilts in Frankfort once, very nice people.
Have you ever been to B&J Sewing Center in Bourbonnais? I was there only one time. DH works part time at a beauty school out there, and we took a ride out there. It's on La Grange and North Avenue. It's really a nice shop. Kind of small, but a good selection, and really helpful people. I checked their website,
http://www.bjsewing.com and they do have open sew.
I know of a few others, but I think they would be far for you to drive.
