Oh, No, I plot out the rotation, figure who I can bum a bed from, and then remember I'm headed in the other direction for a meeting that weekend. Will miss it once again. Would love to get some of that Georgia Fabric! I guess I'll have to take comfort with stopping at MaryJo's.

I like them too, Intown, I used to like them better when they were 5 mins from my house, but I know their newer location is better for them. They are sweethearts, I asked about a OBW class and they scheduled it and are very accomodating for quilters. She will even take 1 coupon from Joann's mailer, the one with your name on it and you can use it for up to 5 yds, I think on the fabric one. :lol: Very nice of her.

If the old location was 5 minutes from your house, you live in the area I grew up in----and I love that area. Her new location is now less than 5 minutes from my work and since I live between Tucker and Lilburn, it's a LOT easier for me to go often! <sigh>

If any board member is planning on going I would love to car pool. I'd be happy to chip in on gas money/lunch to help defray the costs. My quilting buddy isn't going and I would enjoy it more with like minded quilters than going alone.

Please PM me

teacherbailey...our condos are the property right next to the old GMHI (Ga mental health institute) now closed and called Emory West, but not used for much. We love the area too and even tho I'd love a 3rd bedroom, I love the location more. Perhaps we knew each other, did you got to Druid Hills High?
