I know how it feels when you have to put all your stuff in storage for a while and live with family. I missed my quilting and other crafts. Our landlord defaulted on the house we were living in and it was forclosed on. Now we live in a fair sized appartment but I have my quilting stuff...stuffed into every closet and corners. I hope we can find another house to live in.

I live in Blaine. We don't live that far from each other. During the summer we go through Elk River every week on our way to our camper. Would like to meet you sometime.

Did you go to Cottage Quilts or some where in St. Cloud for your fabric? And where do you meet for your Saturday quilting?
It doesn't sound like you have alot of room where you're living.

This is great to get kids to sew and quilt. I have even had the handicapped kids at school make quilts. Each doing what they could do at each ablilty level. Some thread needles, some sew on machines, some tied the quilt and some were in charge of telling us where to put the ties or if we left threads. We had a blast and they put it in the school Art show. They were so proud of their quilt !!! The parents and the community was thrilled with their work!!! It was fun!!!

I use to live in Blaine to for many years. It would be nice to meet with you. The Saturday quilting that we are doing it is for the kids in the neighborhood were my Son and Daughter in law live in Big lake. These kids are quite hyper and a handfull for 6 and 7 year olds!
I do go up to St Cloud now and again as they have many good quilting stores to shop at. I have many places that I do go to as well.
