Odessa, I think you should definitely go ahead with your idea of getting a group together. It is fun.

I'll be up in Wolverine, just south of Indian River probably in May or June. Will I be anywhere near you? Maybe we can get together. And maybe someone from up in your area will get in on this topic and you can meet and have a little shop hop/lunch. I hope this topic spreads state wide and we can all make new friends.
Have you been to the quilt house in Indian River? The owner is a little bundle of energy and always so enthusiastic about my projects and so helpful if I get stuck. Just wish I didn't live 5 hours from there.

Okay, Saginaw Bay area quilters, since this IS National Quilting Month, and the 20th is National Quilt day, shall we plan something? If so, suggest your favorite shop and we'll pick one or two to meet at. I don't want to run all over the place (lots of projects, you know), but 2 shops for me would be do-able. If we select 4 shops, and everyone makes an attempt to do at least 2, that would be awesome!
Any takers? I'll suggest Fabric Fair in Downtown Bay City as a place to work from. Anyone else???

I am in Mtorris but I would love to go to the fabric fair on the 20th. Things should be quieted down here by then and I will be able to see to drive. If not will have cousin bring me. She goes there a lot but I haven't been yet.
If people let me know ahead of time I can go almost anywhere in the state to meet. Would love to meet everyone of you.

I live in Midland and we also have a house in Cheboygan. I think that it would be super fun to get together. i love fabric Fair and have also been to the shop in MIo as my Mom lives up there. Haven't been to the shop in Cheboygan yet, but it's in the near future!
