    Anyone here going to or have a booth at the Daisy Festival in Stone Mountain, Ga? Actually I guess I am posting maybe a little late. It started today and ends this Sunday. I hope to go Saturday. I know if I get anything it won't be much. Due to not having much funds. But I want to go anyway just to see all the beautiful and new things everyone is selling.

    Don't get too excited about the Yellow Daisy Festival. It's not a quilt show. Very artsy stuff, but no quilts that I remember from last year. It was hot as Haides and there must have been 30,000 people there when I was visited. That on top of having to walk a mile from the parking lot!

    I live 10 minutes from Stone Mountain! Usually not a lot of quilts but tons of other goodies. It's also really packed with people. Enjoy it anyway! If you want the goods on a fun local quilt shop, check out http://www.intownquilters.com/ It's about 10 minutes away.

    We went to the festival today. Didn't get anything. Though there were lots of things that I would liked to have had. I did see some of those neck coolers that some of us here make. I asked someone here a couple years ago about how much would you sell one for and I think someone said around $5.00. Well there they were selling for $14.00. They said that once you get them to swell you can put them in the microwave for 30 secs. to 1 min. and some stay warm any where from 45 min. to 1 hr. Has anyone heard of putting this in the microwave too?
