I met Eleanor when she was at the Shipshewana Quilt Festival a couple of years ago. She came into the LQS where I work (Caroline's Cottage Cottons in Rome City, IN) and I got my photo taken with her and the other gals from the shop.

Eleanor Burns went to the same college I did, does that count for anything? Ummm...that's what I thought. She was a couple of years ahead...never met her there, but did attend a So. CA weekend sew in during the late 80's. Really energetic, friendly person.

this is a really funny story. while visiting relatives in Calif. we were out and about and I saw
this quilt shop; went in, not knowing whose shop it was...while looking around someone said
"Eleanor is taping right now; will be out soon"...Then it dawned on me...she came out and
before I knew it she insisted we have our picture taken..Wow! she was very friendly.

About 15 yrs ago I had the opportunity to take one of her classes at a sewing expo in Pittsburgh, really fun.
But last year I had the once in a lifetime chance to go to the expo in Puyallup (never can remember how to spell that name-hope it is right), Wash. I wasn't able to sign up for her class but I met her in the ladies room! We were at the sinks washing our hands at the same time so we chatted for a min, she was so friendly even though my conversation was probably "duh, duh, duh" while I stumbled over my tonque.
