OMQA is a great group of quilters, both women and men, who are a great source of information, encouragement, knowledge, and camaraderie. Our members live all over the great state of Ohio. Some of our members have been longarm or shortarm quilting for 10+ years and some members are just getting their quilting machines. Some quilt full-time as a business, some part-time, and others quilt for friends and family only. We welcome all to our meetings!
