It's a website (there's also an app available for smart phones) where you can sign up and discuss neighborhood goings-on with your neighbors. When you sign up, you select which neighborhoods/areas you want to be informed about. It's very similar to Facebook and is free.
Pros: Notice of community events, such as farmers markets, construction notifications, job fairs, neighborhood garage sales, a rash of mailbox thefts, items for sale, etc.
Cons: Some people go on rants that I find juvenile and petty. Some people vent about the dumbest things, like a man walking down the street, and the neighbor posting about it found him "suspicious" and wanted everyone to keep an eye out for him.

Thanks for all the input about the fabrics. I think it's very similar to some that were mentioned, but I haven't found the exact ones online yet. I imagine they're quite old. I will post the quilt when I finish it, which should be in a day or two.

I also think you have fabrics from more than one line. I think I recognize one of them and it's quilt old.
I've bought several layercakes that are from lines of fabric, and usually there is a lot more similarities in prints/types than what you have. There are several in your group that look like they could be the same line, but several others that look like they are not. I will add, those are colors that I love, so I think they all look wonderful!

Those are pretty fabrics but I too don't know the manufacturer.
On the Nextdoor; they have one here where I am that I just joined not too long ago. There are many pluses; people asking for recommendations for just about everything; a good plumber, electrician, yard workers, roofers, mechanics, etc. A good source to get pros and cons of different businesses. Road closures, and here lots of fires going on so where they are located, etc. I got an 'invite' from someone. Has some interesting information on it - sometimes. I ignore the political stuff but honestly haven't seen too much of that.
