wow, great welcome!! thanks everyone for positng and welcoming me. a few answers to questions - yes I do go once in while to quilters general but prefer cottage garden quilts in ashton, il
Yes, I live near by where the train crashed, about a mile and half. not a pretty site at all and my friends husband was one of the volunteers that came in to help out, said it was the worse thing he had ever seen.
I have never been to Roscoe, but know it's close by.
I do try to go to the april rosemont quilt show, the international. Love going to the Quilt Expo up in Madison, WI every Sept. This year there will be a quilt show in Hoffman Estates the week after the Madison show.
thanks again to everyone and hope to talk to all of you again soon!!
