Wini - House of BCC in Houston

Well, now, that's a clever name for a building with four walls and a roof that protects all our valuables! Reading these comments reminds of my time in Texas. Just out of college I drove with my brother as he took a job in Houston. I lived with him in Clear Lake until he married, then I shared apartments with about 4 different roommates until I decided I just wasn't finding the right kinds of friends. When he got transferred back to Illinois, I sent my stuff along with his. I must admit, I do kinda miss the temps. WELCOME from Illinois.

I think that you're thinking of Dozier's. They're still here and do barbeque, fresh meats, process deer, etc. Fulshear has grown a lot though. Lots of new housing.

Yes that is the one. I used to make sure my ex would take me to get Pepper Cured Shoulder Slug. OMGAWD! Now I have done it. I will have to go out that way soon and get some. Wini - House of BCC in Houston

Hi Wini,

Well you and I already have a lot in common. My birthday is the same as yours, my sister lives in Houston (well, just outside), I raised five kids but I only have 7 grandchilren. My husband bought me a 2004 Bernina Embroidery machine last year. I have spent a year learning how to sew on computerized sewing machines. Quite different from my simple 1975 Bernina 830!!

I am glad you signed up. Hope you enjoy everything, espeically all of the tips and encouragement. Please PM me if you would like to. I would love to hear from you.

Linda

No Wini, we have the Junk Store and one is the Thrift Store, same ole' same ole'. If you blink your eyes when you come thru Crossville, AL you'll miss us. I think everyplace nowadays has them.

Hello and Welcome. I am just southeast of Houston. Tomball is about an hour from me. My Aunt use to live there, we loved visiting. So is that lunch invitation open to anybody?lol I want to do a one block wonder quilt to. I have the book and have ready it about hmmmm 5 times now. K3N (here on the board) was trying to help me, but I am soooo scared to cut it. I even ruined another fabric to practice on lol. So for now it will just sit there until someone can physically show me.

My door is always open of course you may have to step over or move a tub of fabric or whatever. I promise I am not a Hoarder, I just collect good stuff for sewing, embroidery, quiliting etc.
Saturday another friend is coming to do some OBW lay outs. You are more than welcome. PM me if you would like to come.
