Mom and daughter road trip
My brother and SIL live in a small community just outside of Gaithersburg MD and they are having a community festival.
My SIL asked us to come and have a booth at their craft show. They usually have about 8,000-10,000 people in one day. She thinks my quilts, tables runners, casserole covers and check book covers would sell like hot cakes. My daughter is so excited to go on a road trip - just the two of us - and leave her kids at home with their Dad. Not sure about driving 1,000 miles one way for a craft show but the road trip sounds great to me.

Oh, boy, does that sound great! My DD and i took the bus to AZ a few years ago. HORRIBLE trip, but it was the bus, not the company!!! I would love to get my DD's to do something like that. A road trip sounds like a great time.

if you stop over night be sure to have your quilts covered from sight. if you have them inside the car, cover them and make it look trashy so no one will want to see what ever you have. good luck and have fun!!!
