Hi, I'm From Kansas City also, was born and raised in KC and love it, Now I live 50 miles North in a little town of 200 people. We have 30 acres up here and absolutely love it. My husband of 35 years still works in Kansas City, Ks. he hates the commute but says its worth it. We have lived up here for 26 years but go to KC at least two or 3 times a month. I love to quilt, I had an Aunt that was an awesome quilter though she passed away several years ago before I was really into quilting so I don't have her expert opinion to rely on, so am so glad to have this message board. I am new and just signed on today, I am looking forward to getting to know you all and learn some of your teniques.
