    Hey, I only live 45 minutes away and don't get there often enough! As Quilting Grannie said, it is easy to get overwhelmed if you don't have a list. I work on Tuesday but could meet you there on Wednesday if you want some local company.

    I went to a huge quilt show yesterday and Sew Much Fun, in Gastonia, was a vendor. They have something I want in their store!

    I was there for the 1st time a few weeks ago, and what fun I had!!! DH wanted to know if I needed a truck (he's so cute). There is nothing you could want that she doesn't have! Mary Jo still works in the store and knows where every one of the 30,000 bolts are!!! Have a WONDERFUL time and be prepared to take a 2nd mortgage out on your house!!!

    Have a WONDERFUL trip. My group is going there on a bus trip the end of October. It will be my first trip with them (they go every 6 months or so). I have my list and I am just hoping will be able to stick to it. Everyone says your first trip is overwhelming....to say the least. HAVE FUN. Safe travels.

    Have fun. Good shoes and lots of water. One must stay hydrated to clearly think :}
    I didn't get to go three weeks ago when we were in NC. I intend to go back sometime and spend all day.

    The pull along cart is a great idea. I have a large old one I will take when I go.

    You are so fortunate to be going to Mary Jo's! For 15 years I lived in NC and went to Mary Jo's weekly. I so miss those visits. Have a great time; but then, I am sure that you will.
