Years ago I signed up to go to Paducah Quilt Show on a tour bus. Thats how I met one of the best friends I ever had. She saw me sitting at this big table by myself eating lunch, invited me to her table, where she sat with a couple of other friends, and that was it. We were friends for years and did everything together, we even traveled to Keepsake Quilting once, just the 2 of us. Quilters are friendly people, they will welcome you with open arms Im sure. Who knows... maybe you will meet your Best Friend!
