Whew! I've just spent half the morning reading this thread. Since you are swinging through Texas to hit the Fredericksburg Pie Shop, I think I have enough time to grab my fabrics and meet you there. Actually while you are in Fredericksburg, you really should stop by Rustin' Robs to taste some Texas delicacies.
