    Sorry you won't be able to join us but don't blame you for heading for warmer weather. When will you get back?

    Directions to Creative Quilt Kits - If you are coming from I-96 (which is exit #145 - Grand River), go south towards Brighton. On your left will be all of the fast food restaurants, Taco Bell is the last one. We are two driveways past Taco Bell, on your left. We are in the Davis Office Center - look for that sign. If you miss our drive you can turn left at the next light, and then left again into our parking lot. We are in the building in the middle of the parking lot - we are the only one open on Saturdays.

    Thank you for the directions. That's a big help. Hope we have a good turnout. It will be fun to meet everyone. Meeting time is 10:00 am unless anyone wants to meet earlier at Big Boy's. I'd be willing to meet at 9:00 am for breakfast and/or coffee if anyone is interested.

    Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday. Only problem is that DH knows where I headed. Just how am I going to get all those things I'm not going to buy in the house????? Well I have 2 days to plan my strategy. Maybe I won't find anything I like. Give me strength, lol. Hopefully the weather will cooperate too. Safe driving everyone.

    :lol: :lol: :lol: That's the fun in driving a van - I leave my goodies in back in the 'hole', right under the blanket I keep in the car in case I get stranded. :thumbup:

    Checked the weather station and it looks good so far. But it will be cold. Dress warm.

    WOW - What a great time it was. And the quilt shops!!! EEGads. the fabrics. More about it tomorrow. And as I left the shops I said to myself, "I shouldn't have". Oh well, I'm getting closer to Heaven. LOL

    Met some wonderful gals. It's amazing when quilters get together that you feel like you've been friends forever.

    Great day.
