What about meeting out my way. I live in romeo. From here you could go north to Imlay City and visit The Pincushion. A little further is Elaine in Hadley or even a little more north in Marlette is Sisters in Quilting. Or from romeo east you can go to Richmond, Sew Together and then Port Huron is May Maxim and Sew Elegant. I'm sorry I missed your gathering last week. It sounded like fun. My husband and I do a little Christmas jaunt that day and we did end up in Fenton and Holly but it was too late for quilt stores.
