I'm jealous! That's great! I wish I had a quilt buddy close to me. I could use ALOT of advice as I'm new to sewing/quilting. Hope ya'll have a great time!

I do know atleast 5 members that live 15 to 30 minutes or so from me and we have never met, maybe it's time for a get together.

lol, Well I don't live near you, but your giving sale tips would sure have me out picking them up too! Good luck in meeting up with your area quilters!

It's nice to have someone to quilt with or talk with about quilting. I have a Friday quilt group that I meet up with each week. But I truly would love someone that I could trade home sew days with!

You're lucky to have board members local that you can get together with. What a great way to find new friends.

No telling what else we will find in common. I'm hoping we have a chance to possibly meet for lunch soon.
