    Read this on Cyberquilters:

    Yes Yahoo Groups will still be on the web
    but the free websites hosted by Yahoo on Geocities will be replaced by other formats.

    Some of the quilters who made the geocities pages
    have gone on to other different areas of their quilting lives.
    many quilters had personal pages hosted on geocities over the years

    Some of the best quilt patterns on the web have been hosted
    by geocities in the personal pages.

    Other hobbies such as knitting and crochet and embroidery and
    geneology will also close when this service closes.
    If you were printing, the info make time to do it.
