I am back in Louisiana, I was in Hertford N.C. for about a month and met Katmom while doing the wash. We had such a good time talking my DH had to do the wash.

I met Bebe in April at a LQS and she invited me to join the local Quilt Guild. Then in conversation we both discovered we use quiltingboard. Small world, huh?

Yes, JDeery and I have become good friends. We went to a local quilt show together last Saturday. We live about an hour apart and plan to have more get-togethers in the future. She is anxiously awaiting the return of my new long arm so we can have a play date at my house. There are a couple that we e-mail occasionally but have not met, as they are in other states.

There are several of us that get together every other month. Now our group has widened out and 11 will be spending the weekend at the beach in June. This will be our second trip. We have wonderful quilters in our area!

Yes I have met several last year at a Michigan get together and met a new friend through this board that lives near me. We've gotten together lots of times and have some mutual friends,including my cousin! Small world.
