My buddy is on vacation, I will make a note to see about her rooms for the quilt show. The car auction was in trouble but it has been sold. The new company from Canada will be doing the auction on Labor day as planned. We sell the car quilt on that Sunday. During the Quilt show the museums will be open, you have the war museum and the ACD Car Museum. It is really nice!

Hello Everyone, we will need to plan a meet and greet in Indiana, so we can meet each other.

Would you be interested and if so what part of the state would be best to try to find a location. We could meet at a quilt shop and then go out for lunch or dinner.

If you are intereted please send me a private message and on the subject line put Indiana meet and greet location?
