Hi Connie: Welcome from another Oregonian. I'm sure you'll love the board and will learn LOTS and probably will be able to teach all of us a few of your favorite tips, too.
If you are interested, several of us who haven't yet met but who live in Oregon are attending an Open House at Sew Cornie's in Beaverton on Sunday (Superbowl Sunday). All Oregon and Washington board members are welcome. Check out the Open House info and join us if you can. You'd PM SewCornie for directions and info.
Welcome!
