Tell us about yourself

I've been quilting for more than 40 years and own a tiny little business called "Nancy-It-Up Design". I do commission quilts, quilted apparel and gifts and am trying to figure out how to get my stuff into a few 3-4 state craft or quilt shows in the vicinity of Johnstown, PA. I'm really disappointed that, after moving from Minneapolis, there is such a small quilting community in PA. I thought there would be a lot of guilds and shows. Darn!
