Wasn't it great that they actually acted upon your statement? Good for you for asking. I'm sure so many people will use this option.

I live 13 miles from Missouri Quilt and didn't even know it. One day my friend Laura was visiting and we were talking about a tute they did on a Dresden plate and Laura said you know they are in Hamilton, how far is that? I said 13 miles she looked at me and I looked at her and we grabbed our purses and out the door we went.
Now mind you Hamilton is a small town, if you measure it in city blocks umm maybe 10 blocks and your through town, we drove through town a couple of times and could'nt find it so I happened to see a town cop on a side raod and stopped him and asked him if he knew where Missouri Quilt was, he pointed about 50 foot from us and said its right there <face red> I said thank you sir.
Laura and I was doing the happy dance and as we pulled into the parking lot we were so excited...yeah just one car here we will have personal attention, so we scrambled out of the car and looked at a old weathered building, there's the sign, yep this is it. So with purses clutched in our hands and visions of all the material and quilting tools we could get we marched to the door turn the knob and Ohhhhh no, they are closed on Mondays....it was Monday. We pressed our faces to the glass just to get a look at what we could have put our hands on, so with heavy hearts we walked back to the car and just sat and looked at that building. Then Laura said I'm hungry and we went to a little corner Cafe there in town, best Hot Beef, and Tenderloins that you will ever taste. Then we went back to my house vowing that in 2 weeks we were going back on a Friday.
Friday came and Laura was back at my house, we climbed in the car and off to Hamilton we went again, we knew where MQ was now, we pulled back into the drive in front of that old weathered building and grabbed our purses and we're at the door, we're turning the knob and the door opens yeahhh from that old weathered building to Quilters Heaven, Jenny met us at the door, welcomed us in and said if you need any help or have any questions let me know. We spent 2 hours there, and many questions. So with packages in the back seat we headed over to the Corner Cafe to eat lunch before heading home. It was a great day. Jenny is awesome and so is the shop. So...if your ever near Hamilton Missouri make sure you stop, you won't be sorry and make sure you stop at the Cafe.
