I'd love to get together and meet sometime. Please let me know the details. Wini you are so kind to offer your time share.

Thank you, Ms Wini for the very kind offer of your time share! So far, have only hear from two, your self and Ms Patty, I make three, lol. Hopefully we will hear from more local quilters in our area. I am in the Richmond area between Katy and Sugar Land. Where are you Ms Patty? Wini what part of Houston?
Let's keep in touch and see if this meet up becomes a reality, even if it doesn't we can still go to lunch ! |
I would be interested...do you have any idea where any Houston and what time of day. I am in the Tomball area and am free all day.

I think this is a great idea for my area also...AZ. I have been wanting to attend the Houston Quilt Show for a few years now anyway. Wouldn't it be great if you had a meet and greet during the show? I understand one has to plan on attending the show a year ahead of time just to get a hotel. Anyway, it just sounds like a great time.
|
yes-- let's try to meet during the Houston show!! we'll be there Friday night and Saturday for certain, and could be convinced to stay through Sunday if we have a chance to meet and play crafts & quilting!!
We're coming from San Antonio---anyone else from SA on line? |
A gettogther sounds great. Let me know where and when.
|
I also live in Tomball, but would be happy to meet somewhere between Richmond and Tomball for lunch. Maybe we should do a lunch or dinner first to meet everyone before trying to plan a retreat together. How far from Houston is Richmond? I get all those cities mixed up around Houston :)
And Oldfarmgirl, my Mom will be coming to the Houston show from San Antonio. We've been the past few years and stay down in a hotel from Wednesday to Sunday usually. She is on the quilt board too. (she introduced me to it). Have you met anyone from San Antonio on the board? She had lunch with a group once I know. Her board name is marjean36, you may have already met her. Marjorie Brown is her real name. We'd love to meet up with some of you there too. And Debby, my Tomball neighbor, let's do lunch! I just noticed the "quick reply" comment above where I'm typing a chapter book, haha sorry the post is so long. Patty |
Hi Patty. That's a great idea...let's get together. When and where. I am retired so mostly any time is good with. I need to let you know that I am a beginner quilter...I have just worked on blocks. I go to prayers and squares at a chuch near me (not my church) and there are several people that try to teach a block class and answer questions free of charge. Anyways let me hear from you. I am located on Louetta and 249.
|
I live in Magnolia and would to do meet and greet. Just tell me when and where.
Sussie |

My three quilt friends and I live in Richmond too. We get together and sew at Quilters Cottage in the classroom sometime.[/quote]
Where is Quilters' Cottage? I'm not too familiar with Richmond, but it isn't far from me. What day do you meet? |
Yes, I live in Lakewood Grove Subdivision. This is on Louette across from Heatherwood. As I mentioned I will be gone Thursday thru next Monday but would like to get together to quilt. Keep me updated.

It's on 359 behind Pecan Grove and the Randalls http://www.texasquilterscottage.com/ It just depends...I work and they don't so we try to meet on Saturdays every other month or so. We also go to retreats on quilt shows together. |
Patty have you attended the Quilters Group that meets at The Red Barn twice a year. It is sponsered by the Sewing Machine Warehouse. I believe the quilters meet from Thursday thru Sunday late. I have attend once and did enjoy meeting area quilters. This group meet twice a year.

I'm in Pasadena and would be interested :)
|
Hey, count me in too. I live near Katy.
|
I'm in Clear Lake but retired so could come. Let me know also. Will be a Festival also.

Just throwing some locations that might work for a meet and greet. The Whistle Stop in Tomball is a good eats place in the Tomball area for a meet and greet get together. Most Denny's have a meeting room and they are everywhere. For a central location there is Niko Niko's on Montrose in Houston. They have great gyros.
Or we could see how many of us will be at the Quilt Show and when. We could meet in the Food Court and make further plans from there. Wini |

I am new quilter and new to board and would love to get together. I live in Porter/Kingwood area of town.

My fall calendar is filling up fast. However, I'm in central LA--and not too far away to travel.
|
Anything decided on the meet and greet in Houston or before??
|
Hi All,
How many of you will be at the quilt show this week? Maybe we could meet one evening. Maybe Thursday evening at 5 either at a restaurant or hotel? Or does everyone have busy plans at the show with classes, etc and we could meet another time in November after the show. Patty |
Could we meet at 5 p.m. at the Hilton Americas lobby area on Thursday of the quilt show. That's in 2 days. Anyone that can come please do. I'll try to have a pin that identifies me as a QBer. I love in Richmond TX.
Melinda |
