I live in Bixby, suburb of south Tulsa. Most of the quilt shops are on the south side of Tulsa, as is Hardesty Library where the Green Country Quilt Guild meets.
There are quite a few of us quilters in the Tulsa area.
Tornado's....You get used to it. My home has neither a safe room nor a hidey hole. I figure if it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen. Personally I think the tornado's are moving further east. We really don't get that many that touch down around here.
Tulsa is alot different than OKC and southern OK. I love it up here. NE Oklahoma is called Green Country.
If you move here, let me know. I can introduce you to a few quilters and show you the quilt shops!
