Go Penn State! I was on the university faculty for almost twenty years but lived near Altoona. I just moved here in November. My son and his family live nearby. My daughter-in-law is a quilter too. Many quilters in the area...there's a pretty active guild but I haven't made any connections yet. With everything involved in moving and getting my new home organized...my daughter-in-law unpacked and shelved fifteen tubs of fabric...the quilt studio was the first space to be done!
