Yeah! I have never had a friend close by that loves to quilt! You guys are SO great, but I never get to go shopping with ya!
She came over for coffee, and saw my 30s fabrics on the table, and said if I loved that fabric, there was a shop she HAD to take me to!
Wasnt far, but I hadnt been there before, and it was wonderful, with GREAT prices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So fun to shop with a quilting buddy, rather than BF! I actually got to browse, instead of rush, lol!
Was a nice day.

Way to go. My regular circle of friends don't quilt either. It is so nice to have someone to share our passion of quilting. Way to go!

oh how fun!! Did you meet her here on the board or how did y'all find one another?

CarrieAnne 11-06-2010 06:20 AM

Actually at work. Most of the ladies there dont sew, but she does.
I still want to meet someone from here, though!

Oh, I am so happy for you...and I bet your new quilting buddy feels the same way!

If you really hit it off together, you might consider setting aside one Friday a month to meet in each others homes and quilt a little together. I bet your group would grow...

Perhaps even the small shop you went to would enjoy having you meet there free of charge for a couple of hours...

Quilting is a life saver for women today, as it was years ago!

Glad you found one another!

Yeah CarrieAnne!! I wish I knew someone here that quilts and understands I just can't run off whenever to quilt, little man runs my life right now. I did get to talk on the phone to alaskasunshine yesterday, she is so nice. I can't wait to talk with her again.

Yep, Carrie, I remember those days.....need to be home for nap time, and lunchtime, and his TV shows. Aw, he will grow up WAY TO FAST, then you will miss him!

I know I will miss him that's why he is so spoiled!! Maybe in 5yrs. or so 1 of the 2 older ones will bless me with grandbabies.
