My husband and I are going on a road trip soon. We will be close to Hamilton, and I have already put it on the list of things to do. Of course, now I will need to go to a baseball game to round out the plans, but that is a small price to pay for a visit to this store.

Now this is what I call a true quilting friend. How kind of you to offer to chauffer another quilter. Tessagin what a great way to meet one of the quilting board members if you do not already know each other. I'd bet you two would have a fabulous day. Keep us updated on your trip keeping my fingers crossed for you that you make it to Hamilton.

I will rent a car if I have to. I plan on spending a day and some money and meeting Jenny or even one of the family.

It's really nice when nice people succeed. I'm glad you had a chance to visit the MSQ and share with us here.

We haven't traveled that way recently but it's on my list for next year. I'm always appreciative of good old fashioned hard work and Jenny and her family demonstrate that. If you don't know how they started the business in a time of family need I suggest reading the story. Every time I have ordered I have received excellent service and excellent product. Thank you to Jenny and her family for building a great business. Sounds like they are good to their employees too.

I lived in Missouri for over 57 years and at the time I moved to Iowa had not hear of MSQ Co. Now I plan on going back to visit friends, family and make the grave side visits to loved ones. I'll drive all the way across state just to go see this famous quilt store. It will be an added bonus to my trip!!
