How very sweet, Alice. I hope you two get to attend together. Katrina took
my quilt show buddy and I wouldn't even dream of going to a show without a
friend to share with. We didn't just ooh and aah. We did some muttering
about the judge's character and qualifications and once started a protest
demonstration about the Viewer's Choice being totally dismissed by the
judges. And would we like to judge a show? Heck, no. There's a yellow
stripe running down my back. I just like to complain...and share.


Oh Polly! I'm so sorry about your quilt show buddy! One more tragedy to
Katrina's tally.

Well, just to let you all know, you won't see many posts from Lisa and me
tomorrow. We'll be at the Ft. Washington Quilt Show. Don't worry, we'll
take pix!

It ain't gonna happen - Kirby is guarding my stash and Lisa is leaving her
DH to guard hers. Sorry. Better luck next time!
