    Welcome from Michigan, we were up your way several years ago, and had to visit as many quilt shops as possoble.

    You'll never want for things to keep you busy if you stick with this group! Just be careful - this Board is very addictive!!!

Boy is this fun!!
    Welcome! Maybe you need to make a machine appliqued landscape with pieced borders, and then machine quilt it! :D

    Alaska Members- I will be cruising to Alaska and will have time in Ketchikan, Sitka, Skagway, and Juneau - are there quilt shops near the dock used by the Cruise Ships?
