My 15 year old son & I got home tonight from our 2 week road trip which took us from Seattle, East and South through Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Arizona (just a corner), Nevada and all over California, Southern & Northwern. Having put 3600 miles on my car, I got to check out a few quilt shops along the way - always fun! But the best was in California - where I got to meet up with Charming (Faten). Thank you so much for the delight of your company and the wonderful feast you prepared! It was so fun to meet you and RippedStitches (?), visit, eat & see your sewing spaces. I'm so jealous! Especially liked that quilting machine... If you you two really do make plans to come my way, please let me know. I would love to host you both. Shannon

Indeed, it was great to meet up! The only down side was I had to leave too soon...
