This morning, I was quilting and my DH is reading the paper. He tells me we are going somewhere. We get ready and leave. Imagine my surprise when we arrive at a quilt show given by a local quilt quild.
I have never been to a quilt show, ever. On entering, you spun the wheel to get prizes. I won a pin cushion and he won fat quarters. The gave me my form to pick my favorites. He was so happy that the let him "judge"
too. After admiring the quilts a few times, off to the exhibiters area.
While I was picking out fat quarters, he is talking to a lovely 80 something lady. He told her I was buying more fabric and that I sure didn't need it. She told him and I quote, "She is a quilter and so am I. I probably don't have a lot of time left on this earth. I have a pretty big stash at home and I am going to add some of this lovely fabric to that stash. You never know when you just might need it."
I think DH had as much fun as I did. What a wonderful day. I guess I will keep him.
