    Take notes of the people who entered the quilts in the fair and call them to see if there is a group near you.

    If your local school has adult ed classes, maybe they have one for quilting. If they don't, ask, and maybe you can teach one.

    See if your community has a homemakers group, or any group that does charitable work.

    The Library is a good source.

    I hope that you find a group to quilt with. Quilters are the nicest people!

    Too bad you are so far away. I'm in Ohio also and am a solitary quilter because I just don't know any others except on here. I would love to be part of a group also, but no transportation and funds are always an issue.

    good luck! hope you find someone. I may not be able to have actual contact, but I'm positive I get my quilt fix right here on this site. Face to face would be great, but make due the best you can, that's what I do.
