I'm so glad you took that post the way you did. Sometimes people are offended if you insult the place where they live. I know the scenery is beautiful, almost breathtaking there. It always took my breath away when we came over that ridge and saw the bottom of the valley. I actually thought of living there for a moment. But now I am glad I live where I do. Surrounded by Amish and most of them are quilters. All we ever do is have fun.
Tater Patch Quilts.....been there!!!!! when I was back visiting the folks. Owned by two women. Very helpful. Bought a pattern I still haven't made. My main addictions it to patterns. Tom Palmer's widow had something to do with a quilt shop there. Is she one of the owners?? I'm getting so old I am forgetful.
For all you other wonderful quilters out there that may wonder about Foxflower's mentality, in Modoc County, CA there are more DEAD rattlesnakes on the goat trails than there are people in the county. (And I'm just counting the dead ones.) The music is provided by packs of coyotes running in the hills overhead as they chase the jack rabbits and pheasants. The smells are the algae on the alkali lakes and flats. There really is a wild, wild West still out there and Foxflower lives in the middle of it.
Save the 2nd ammendment. You are gonna need a carbine if you go there.
