I am visiting the New Orleans , La area and have met up with a great gal named "sweet" or Sue from the board. she took me to 3 diffetent quilt shops , lunch on the river, lighthouse, allegator hunt, and antiques shops. what a great time I had. Sue makes a great tour guide. She is such a nice person and I hope that I have made a new lifelong friend. The shops down here have different material than in Ohio and staff is very friendly and helpful. I bought fabric for 2 quilts, Christmas wall hanging, Mardi Gras wallhanging, and 3 other wallhangings. I learned quilting tips and info about the southern customs. Thanks SOOOO much "sweet" Sue you are GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, Lucky You!!!!!!!!! I would LOVE to meet her too, she seems like a really nice lady!

Sounds like fun!!

Glad you are having a fabulous time.

I bet you both had fun!

Now we all know where to plan our trips for and who to contact! She'll be so busy being a tour guide that she'll have to give up quilting! LOL

Sounds like you had a great time. It's a shame we can't all get together somewhere for a weekend retreat. Wouldn't that be a hoot? We'd need a stadium or huge convention center. Let's see, Admin could sponsor it, making it free to all "a regular here" members, of course it would be catered, hourly drawings for door prizes, free seminars by Ricky Tims, Carol Doak, and many others.......Okay, let's make it a two weekends one week thing---9 days. Yeah, I like it....

Sign me up for the tour!!!!!

Glad you guys had a fun time..

I LOOOOVE New Orleans!!!!!!!! Been there many times and always enjoy it. Glad you're having fun!! :D:D

wake up rapture! but it is a wonderful dream.

That sounds like so much fun. Have a great time with your new fabric.
