Hi Grace - Welcome to the forum. I know what you mean about it being hard to find friends that you have much in common with! We are over on the dry side of the state but have only lived here less than a year. I like sewing too - I am right now working on finishing some UFOs before starting anything new.

Welcome Grace. It's good to have you here. I'm in Pasco, WA. Is your area where they grow some of the most wonderful blueberries? I've been to Mossyrock, so I must have been through Salkum too! It's good to have you here to share your knowledge with the rest of us.

Welcome Grace. I am new to the forum too. But you will find a great bunch of gals here. I have a son that lives in Kenniwick Wa. He goes to college there. Great to meet you.

Hi Grace! I'm just over here near Vancouver so not far at all :) Welcome to the area! You'll love the forum - such a great bunch! I have an online quilt shop which keeps me hopping and love to barter with Miss Bonne and Lisa and the other gals here on the forum. Such talented ladies! Hollar if you get some free time and want to meet up your way or venture over here. Our chapter here kind of fizzled but there are a few of us we could get together for a proper Farmgirl welcome sometime too :) It's always great to meet the other Farmgirls :) Have a great weekend *~* Sissy
