Well, let's see what we'd need.
Some place for people to touch base post information, questions, projects, etc. It would be good if we could post videos if we got that into it, for various techniques or people showing off their work. Communication and the ability to share things like pictures of what we have done or if we needed help with a problem. Encouragement and cheerleading would be important as well.
The Quilt Show certainly has all the necessary framework for that on a much larger scale. The Quilt Show is kind of like a 'maxi' group.
Is there a current forum section that would work so we wouldn't have to ask for another one to be created?
I'm sure there are people here who have a lot more experience than I do with mini groups who can say a lot more about what's needed.
