Hello Greenfairy. I'm not a pro by any means but I don't let that stop me. :D I show off my sewing to anyone that will look at it. There are quiet a few very talented quilters here and I have learned a lot from the board. Check out the pictures and the resource pages. And there are some great tutorials posted here. I have found great ideas from quilting blogs too. Quilters make great bloggers, we always seem to have something to say.
