Hello from upstate NY

Hello all,

I am relatively new to quilting. Looking for some classes near Albany, NY. Any suggestions?

Welcome from Oklahoma. I think that a local fabric shop might know of, or even have classes. Try calling around and see what they say.

Welcome from the Gulf! Ditto what Boston1954 stated. Check your local quilt shops or sewing centers. Just Google and go. Also check the videos. They're quite informative! There may be some board members nearby who can help.

Welcome from southeastern PA. This is a great site to have joined. Lots of very talented people here and they are all willing to help with any questions you might have and always have useful information. I try to read the threads daily and maybe even more if I have the time. Welcome aboard

Welcome aboard from south Louisiana. This is a great board. I've learned a lot and seen a lot of eye candy here. My bucket list is much longer now.

HI I am in East Greenbush, NY and there is a great quilt store in Ravena called The Log Cabin. I know they have classes. Very nice and friendly people work there too.
