I was approached in the parking lot...

Sounds like the beginning of one of those dire warnings about "a friend of a friend who...." but it isn't!
I was in the parking lot at the supermarket this morning and was approached by someone asking if I give quilting lessons. I have a quilty licence plate, so it's not hard to figure out that I quilt.
I've given lessons to friends before but never a paying stranger. I like to teach, so it may be fun.

That's cool I have been asked to help teach friends and family.
I always tell them that I love them too much to try and teach them.
I am a learner NOT a teacher.
I tried once and ended up getting frustrated and then they were frustrated.
Not my calling I guess. :|

P.S. Mandie where did you get your avatar pic? I live about 30 miles from that sign! Is it a picture that you took?

I got it off the internet ;) I too live about 30 miles from it.
It could be fun if you remember that you need lots of patience and the ability to be flexible!! Otherwise everyone gets uptight and it isn't fun anymore.

would you go to their house or meet somewhere? only at your house if you trust this person. most likely a very nice person, but these days you must think about the possibility they may not be.

It's always good to be careful, but sometimes things work out. My husband and I met online in a gardening bulletin board and we just celebrated our 12th anniversary.
