Hi G--I live about 25 miles north of Macon right off of I-75. My husband is retired military and we moved to GA three years ago to be near all of our kids and grandkids.
What is your favorite quilt shop? I love Little Quilts and Tiny Stitches in Marietta, but Intown Quilters is so fun, too!!! Usually I just stick closer to home to shop, though, in Jonesboro, Stockbridge and Jackson.

Marcia,
I waive Friday night from the interstate on my way to Warner Robins..
Thank you husband on behalf of my family for serving in our military.
I do not think they get enough thanks.
I don't have a favorite quilt shop. I was in one a few years ago and was not realy impressed. The staff seemed snobby. I know I did not know anything about quilting but all of my questions were answered with well we have a book that would cover that. Or why don't you take a class. I know they have to sell but I was not impressed. I use Walmart, Hobby lobby and Joann's.
Best regards,
G

Hello from Florida! saw your name somewhere earlier. not a 'lurker' anymore. your officially welcomed in.
never mind those few 'snobby' ppl you ran into in fabric store, most quilters are the warmest ppl I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. think we all started out as 'lurkers', lol. I keep saying that bc i find it amusing.
I say I got my nickname cause quilting sometimes makes me crazy, but it's really bc sometimes i am just good old fashioned, normal,....(whatever that is :wink: ) and sometimes I am just a little 'offbeat', but oh so harmless, I assure you. I am a nana, four times :D C

Welcome G! :)
I don't visit here very often... competing for computer time with my teenager and her Facebook!
Anyhow, we're practically neighbors, I live in Auburn, GA!
There are a few quilt shops close by in the Buford and Lawrenceville areas.
