    I was helping at the quilt shop today in Kearney, and I had a nice lady and her daughters (I think) stop in to shop. They shopped for a while and had me cut some beautiful fabrics. We chatted a little bit and she happened to mention that she was on the Quilting board. I said "I am too!"... I found out it was Mary Koch. We were both suprised, but a little excited to meet another board member. It was the best part of the day!

    My new home is near Hastings, (if we ever finish this move!), I will pop in some day. Is this shop the one downtown?

    Yes it is Quilters Cottage downtown. 2220 Central. You are going to have nice shops in the tri-cities. All three with a little different "flavor". You will HAVE to check out Material Girl in Grand Island.....especially if you like the modern/retro stuff. The one in Hastings is really nice too. I used to cross paths with the owner, Sue, in Hastings because we were both in Extension Work for UNL.
    Welcome to Nebraska!
