Gayle, what a special thing you and your friends did for this woman. I'm sure she will put that new machine to good use.
I just got home from the 2 day shop hop. I am exhausted! We visited 13 shops. I spent way too much money. One really good deal I got was some flannel for $3.95/yd. It is navy and black and really nice and will be really good for men's quilts. I got what was left on the bolt - I think it was 12 or 13 yards. I also got 14 half yard cuts of Asian prints. I need at least 7 more for a bento box type quilt for my bedroom.
My eating was terrible during this trip! There were treats at most of the shops. We only had time for fast food so they stopped at Mc Donald's - twice. Today there happened to be a Subway across the street so I went there instead. Time to get back on track.
