Dear Jamie, I am grandfathered in because a.) I used to live in Arizona and b.) I live in South West Colorado. So, I think if you are South West of anywhere, and especially if you are you (Jaime!) then you are welcome here, too!
What a lovely thing SOH is doing. I'm not going to jump in because I also don't quilt (yet), but I keep on thinking I might someday. And, I'm getting myself involved in so many things that I don't want to over-commit and be overwhelmed. But, keep reminding us... maybe at some point I might be ready!
Anyway, Welcome!!
