Hello, I am an Iowa Grandma that didn't quilt until I retired, now I can't get enough. Love this chat board

I am from Northern Iowa, almost to the Minnesota border in Clarion. What part of Alaska are you in. A Dr. I used to work for now lives in Wasilla/Palmer area and practices there. I guess as compared to Alaska, Iowa is not a big state.

Welcome from Ames, IA. I am soon to retire and am loving quilting and learning from this board.

Another Iowan is welcoming you to this wonderful place. I didn't quilt until I retired 22 years ago and now I can't seem to do anything else. I taught school with a coach who went to Clarion to coach. His last name was Hungett(sp). A long time ago so don't expect you to remember. Welcome again. Marge

This is a great site, wonderful examples of the quilts made by readers, and help if someone asks. piecefully, the old one, who also lives in Iowa
