    Thank you - I only wish that could happen to me! Well maybe not owning that shop but at least having that much room to dedicate to my passion!

    Cute story. He's a good writer. I think I might feel that way about a boxer quilt too. There's just something about it that doesn't sit right with me.

    That is a wonderful story. I take my 6 yr old GS to the shops with me and it is hard to get him out of there without some fabric. He loves helping me sew and I think that quilting is skipping a generation here and he will be making his own before long. His mother has trouble just sewing a straight line!

    One of the people that left comments said, "At least they finally got it all out of the house!" Little do they know!! Once we take over there is no turning back. LOL
