Welcome from the Illinois countryside. The quilting board is my breakfast companion every morning with a cup of tea. My friends here never disappoint with their fabulous creations, helpful tips, new patterns and color choices, resources to further my knowledge, answers to questions, support & humor. As a group there is a wealth of knowledge on all different topics but a feeling of comraderie as we explore new ideas, solve problems and learn together. I have also met several new email correspondents and some in person, so am forever thankful for their friendship.
