Welcome to the board from your neighbor in mid Missouri, Columbia. Loads of quilts shops around the area for us to feed our habit. I am sure you have already discovered that.

From one hotrod to another-welcome. I was an apparel seamstress for many, many years before I started to quilt, too. It was a natural transition for me and I LOVE IT! Welcome aboard. (I would love to see the Ozarks.)
