OMG .... today was the day of all days!!! Our own Boopers (Betty) and her friend Charlene arrived at the Quilt Show .... and we met "face to face" for the first time. I just happened to walk up to the entrance to talk to Elaine (TF quilter on QB) .... and timing couldn't have been better, Betty and Charlene had just come through the doors. After (((HUGS))) and introductions .... I was presented with my Row Robin Quilt and of course it had to be unfolded and view by "everyone in the area". The "rave reviews" that were handed out by everyone in that circled area ... was a "show-stopper" at the entrance to the Quilt Show, for a few moments. It gave me a teary moment when I saw all the "gorgeous rows" showing the dedicated time .... that "all of us" had put into it. I "Love It - Love It" .... and "Speechless" all at the same time!

The Icing on the Cake: Herman and I just returned home after meeting Betty and Charlene for dinner, at a restaurant in Buhl, ID. We had such a lovely visit ..... with "two" great ladies.

Sharing a picture with all of you, showing Betty, myself and the "Masterpiece".

Dayle,

The quilt is just great! I can just imagine everyone stopping to see it.
How wonderful too that you got to spend some time with Betty. I wish we could all get together and meet each other.

I can hardly wait to see what you do to finish the quilt off! Congratulations on getting it.

I hope you and Herman had a good day of sales at the show too.

Being a "brit and all" you did a fantastic job. I am sure your daughter will just love it. It is great that you and your mum get to spend time over a pot of tea. Enjoy a cup of me.....

Congratulation on a job well done, it is nice to see both of you in the picture. The finished top is just wonderful. Betty never did post pics for us to peek at so the unveil is just wonderful for all of us. Now that the quilt show is over, you might have a minute or two to take a deep breath and let it talk to you before you decide on how to quilt and bind it... Next year, you can enter it in your show.....Thanks Herman for taking the pictures and allowing us to feel like we were there.

I didn't post pictures because I wanted it to be a surprise for Dayle. I had a wonderful time and the quilt show was great. Herman and Dayle are truly delightful. We enjoyed spending time with them.
