    Yesterday I went to lunch with a new friend. She looked through my quilting books and chose a pattern to make for her grandchild due in November. Then off we went to the LQS to find fabric. When we got back to my house I showed her how to cut it out. Was really quick with her using my shape cutter. Monday morning she will be back and I will start her on piecing. Exactly 3 years ago a friend helped me get started and now I am helping someone else!

    And someday she will probably help someone else out. And so it goes. Have a great time.

    Love it, I also inspire my bff to learn something new with each visit, and I also got her started on quilting.
    its a great feeling.

    When she thanks you, ask her to pay it forward to someone else.
