I, too love to see where everyone is from. I enjoy seeing folks from my home state of Colorado, even thought here are millions of folks living there now. I enjoy seeing folks on here from neighboring states of Utah, Wyoming etc. Some of the quilters from around the world amaze me too with their creations. One that comes to mind is the bears in bed mini quilt. I think the quilter lived in Switzerland. We all have a common bond of quilting and this board and the internet make it all possible. I am so very grateful that this is a free site and I thank all the sponsors who let it continue that way! Hugs to all of you where ever you are.
