after a wonderful nights sleep in the most gorgeous little home full of surprises about every corner…now if you think we 3 are collectors you should see Twyla and Jeff’s collections… for one, she wins the gold star for the most quilts – and she has made them all….

This is Twyla’s shop – it is gorgeous

we went for a stroll around the neighbourhood, it is so green and clean and fresh but we just want to see it covered in snow – dont say that to a local though, they have had a very cold winter and have had quite enough snow for one year.P1030570

Friday night we did a trunk show for Twyla at the church hall. We certainly had enough here for a trunk show with 8 suitcases

we had many lovely women – all quilters and stitchers and had lots of laughs, mistold stories, accent jokes and warm and fuzzies to share… we went home for the night feeling very warm and fuzzy also – quilters are so nice…..

and the most exciting was meeting Tomi, Ter and Joan, long time blog friends who had travelled 8 hours and 4 hours just to spend the weekend with us. we felt very special and honoured.
