    Hi there! I live in Tipton, just up the road from you! Last summer I was involved with the farmer's market at Walker's Tavern. I have been to MIS several times. Have you ever been?

    Which shop do you work at?

    I work at Country Stitches in Jackson. I use to go to MIS all the time with the Boy Scouts. We had the job of cleaning the main grand stand until it got too big. I drive through Tipton everytime I go to the quilt store in Tecumseh.

    I've driven by that shop a hundred times, but never stopped. Going to Ypsi in a couple weeks, maybe that will be my chance! What are the Saturday hours?

    I go to The Quilt Patch in Tecumseh all the time but I've never been to The Country Stitches. Do you belong to the Jackson Quilt Guild? I've been to one meeting but I work in Ann Arbor until 5:30 so it's hard to get to their meetings which start at 6:30. The Quilt Patch holds a UFO weekend every month (un finished objects) that I attend pretty regularly. About twenty women or so get together, bring our sewing machines, all our sewing supplies and a project. We also each bring a dish to pass and spend the whole day sewing, laughing, talking and sharing ideas. It's a great time. Oh, and of course, we shop at the store. :-)

    Saturday hours are 10-5. I teach most Saturdays.

    I'm headed to a picnic in Ypsi, so I would need to stop early as will be closed on the way home. Will see if we get on the road early enough. Do I get to the shop by taking the exit past it and coming back? Thanks
