Welcome from the"mitten" state, Michigan. Yes, indeed this is a good place to sit for a short while when you need a"fix" or have a question or just feel curious about what other quilters are doing. It is a safe place to ask questions and to share life, as we have all likely had the same question. We were all beginners, we all have made discoveries and are excited about learning something new. Welcome to a genuinely friendly crowd of quilting enthusiasts. Happy to have a new member in our quilting community.
