Hi Toverly, another state neighbor! Thank you for your welcome. I've made it to Atlanta Sewing Center in Duluth, Ga and what a find. A lady there has been more than kind with her assistance. I've taken one short strippers class with her and I'm ready to adopt her as a sister since I've none!
My husband is traveling again in March to NYC and is actually staying across from The City Quilter in the Chelsea area. I visited with them about charges to use their machines and was informed they could do private lessons if I could think on what I might be interested in. Well, OK, 4,000 bolts of fabric, public classes, private classes, the quilt gallery next door and the opportunity to see a show...um "yes, dear I think I will take a day or two off to go with you"! = ) So maybe I can get my thoughts together on what to learn. Hubs has no clue that he should just want me shopping for clothes instead of feeding the monster he's created!!
Hope to see you on boards soon as I know the questions are forming.
Bonnie
