Suggest she might check her local Extension Service Office (if they have one). Our county has one of the more active ones and we have a great agent who has classes on just about anything you want to do. Our quilt group has about six deaf members. Now we even have a deaf quilting club with members coming from a neighboring state and other nearby counties.

She should check out Missouri star quilt co. On you tube. Jenny does wonderful tutorials. There are lots of others on there also. Just search quilting tutorials on you tube.

I didn't think about utube but that's a good idea. I'll tell her about it. Thanks

Belleview also has a guild that puts on a show every year, but that may be too north for her.

I belong to the Lake County Quilters Guild, which meets every Tuesday 10 am at Lake Receptions in Mt. Dora. Fabulous guild...I am so happy I joined about 3 years ago. We have national speakers, classes, workshops, show and tell, etc. We are having.............Bonnie Hunter!!.......in January! We love having new members. Tell her to check our website. Also, tell her to check out The Sewing Studio in Maitland.....what a place!

JanBach, thanks for the information. I wish I was going to be there in January to see Bonnie Hunter. I'm still trying to get my DH to move back to FL. I'm familiar with The Sewing Studio. I used to shop there when we lived in Casselberry. I took a QAYG class there.

To the quilters near Leesburg. I have several bins of quilting material I need to donate. I am moving and don't have room for them. Please let me know if you are interested. You can contact me at [email protected].
