Good luck! I recently posted a Craig's List ad in my area looking to use a home long arm set-up. I'm willing to pay but hoping for a win/win situation like maybe I could house-sit and use the system while they travel or something like that.
I put in a part that I'd also be glad just to find someone to quilt down my donation tops, they could choose the charity to give them to, I just like to piece and I keep reasonably busy. My final thought was that I didn't expect to find my BFF quilting buddy but a girl could dream!
Keep dreaming. And at least we have this forum for virtual buddies.
