Penny, Im just a little north of you... just south of Charlevoix. There's an adorable quilt shop in Charlevoix on the street subway is on. If you go through there, you should check it out. Also a great little shop in East Jordan.
I LOVE Renees. That's always a stop for me when I head to Traverse.
Im going to be at the quilt show in the afternoon on Friday. I will be counting the viewers choice votes so that we can award that ribbon at the end of the first day. We hung quilts up today and I loved so many of them. Some of the ones that impressed me the most were the mini quilts. It's amazing the patience that some quilters have... working with those tiny little pieces and everything is so exact.
