Welcome from Tennessee Lorraine! Just start posting and join the fun. I don't know about chapters in your area. I was disappointed when I found there were none near me. How ever, the forum has been a wonderful outlet for me. I plan to start a chapter once I get moved back onto the farm. (construction in progress) These women are so talented and knowledgable it is amazing. They are also very friendly, caring, and welcoming!
Glad you found us!

Well I guess 3's a charm-
Here's your third welcome in a row from a fellow New Yorker! Long Island, NY to be exact! And Yes- to reiterate what Teresa said..we just started a Long Island Chapter- anyone that ever wants to "come down" is more than welcome.
Our next get together is Saturday May 14th. We plan on attempting to make the chandelier in MaryJanes Idea book- so we can earn the beginner level of "Light the Way" badge and have something super neat to hang in our backyards this summer!
Farmgirl Smiles,

Welcome from one newbie to another! I'm also in upstate New York but in Schoharie County and we are getting a great thunderstorm right now. Good sleeping weather for sure and for certain!
