Welcome from Oklahoma...
yes, You will learn a lot from this board both about quilting and household tips...
I too consider myself an advanced beginner...only because I like to take on challenges and sometimes get in over my head...
I started quilting in 1981 with the 1 inch hexagonal wreath pattern... had absolutely no idea what I was doing...still haven't finished that quilt... but have all hexagons in a small box and the pattern...
