Next time you're in Belfast I'll give you a guided tour and hopefully we won't get lost! ;)

Quilting is really on the increase here and there are a number of quilting groups and guilds throughout Ireland. We're still not very well off for quilting supply shops although it's getting better. We do have a great one here in Belfast - so that 's lucky for me.

Welcome -- we are practically neighbors -- I'm from Auburn and I second the notion, you'll love this site. PS I'm Irish, too and kissed the Blarney Stone a few years ago1

Yes, we are neighbors, I am in Waterloo. Actually lived on Grant Ave when I was a little girl. I know Hancock left, is there any other quilt shop over there other than Joanne's?

You must check out Patchwork Plus (formerly in Skaneateles and now in Marcellus.) It's a nice drive down Route 20 -- very easy to find and a great shop.
