I say YAY too. I am at my summer place and checked out a quilt shop that I found last fall. Wow!!! It is only 3 miles away. I have signed up for a class scheduled next week and got the supplies needed. Hope to be able to schedule 2 more next month. Sewing is a passion and now I don't feel so alone. I look forward to spending a lot of time there.

Lucky You! Mine is an hr away and I am getting disillusioned about it. It just doesn't have the "feel" of some others I have been in, but I still go there and do my own thing. I have had some luck with finding material that suits my fancy.....

Mrs.fitz, I totally understand. I've always read things here and on other boards about going to here or there for all these fun things, but I never could because there was nothing like that around here.

I spoke to the owner of the shop today. She is lovely! And she actually knows what 'Basic Grey" is and carries the fabric! I have loooooved Basic Grey scrapbook paper for years, and when they came out with fabric, I about flipped, LOL!

I think this is going to be a great thing......

I could "hear" the excitement in your voice as I read your post. It sounds like you will be spending a lot of your time at your new quilt shop...hooray!
As I was reading your post I thought to myself that it sounds like the owner is really going all out to have fun activities and classes and that you will surely meet some new friends that share your love of quilting. I'm excited for you :-D :-D :-D
