I did a quilt Ireland tour last summer with Kim Caskey. We did go to several quilt shops and had a lesson on celtic quilting. I think Rags to Linda was my favorite. What hospitality! Her shop is small so her neighbor made tea. We sat on the patio and took turns shopping. Her husband is a terrific gardener, so there were flowers every where. They raise chickens as well. What fun drinking tea, talking quilting and enjoying the patio. Kim does a tour every summer. There are great accommodations and a reasonable price.
