The Baltimore area has a lot to offer the beginning and experienced quilter. If you have an interest in quilting seek out a local quilt guild and join in the fun. It's a great way to meet new people if you are new to the area. Ask at your local quilt shop to find out about a guild meeting near you. Or, if you are new to Maryland you can email me directly and I'd be happy to introduce you to a quilt group near you.
