Hi there from Rogers, Minnesota. I'm new to both quilting AND this forum. I'll write more in my own introduction, but wanted to say hi to you.

Genafan: Welcome from the PACIFIC NORTHWEST. Don't know where Rogers is but all my relatives live in Northern Minnesota...are you anywhere close to the North West borders?

Rogers is just northwest of the Twin Cities, so we are quite aways away from the NW corner. I don't know why, but I sort of surprized how many quilters there are on the forum from Minnesota...That's great.

I just got back from the fabric store getting the material for my first twin size quilt...I'll be ready to start that by next weekend.

This whole quilting thing could become dangerous!

NOT COULD become dangerous...it is! I never had any desire to quilt then when I did the whole hobby took on a life of it's own. Now everything I see i think of it in terms of how it would look quilted, pieced, sashed, bound, etc. :lol:

Welcome from Washington.

I have a brother living in Owatonna, and my aunt used to live in Rogers and her last name was Rogers- 8) 8)

Welcome to another Minnesota quilter! So far, Rogers, Owatonna, Blaine and now Maple Grove has signed in to say Hi to you! I feel like we could almost have our own retreat some time - along with "just over the border" Iowa and "just over the river" WI! Welcome, you will love it here, where in MN are you?
