In the past we've done a fat quarter exchange and done show and tell. We've also enjoyed yummy treats that both the hostess had and that we've brought. Of course, visiting was at the top of the list! Come and join us and bring a friend!

Cobalt, it would be great to have you join us. It's been nice to be able to put faces and real names with those we visit with here on the Board. I was at the OR State Fair today and saw a quilt done by Sparky. It was a gorgeous piece of art and I had an extra-special appreciation for it because I could say, "Hey, this was done by a friend of mine!". Please join us if you can. Who couldn't use more quilting friends??

:-D :-D

OMG, I would love to go...but alas, I do not have a passport. :-(

I can't wait to see it! I'm going today with my mom just to spend time in the quilting section! No little kids dragging me away! Wahoo!

I'm green with envy for all who get to go to the State Fair. We usually go every year....Enjoy the quilts and the open class food section....my favorites!

Karen,
I would love to attend. Since I don't really know many people in Portland I think it would be fun to meet folks with some of the same interests that I also have.
So where and when is your gathering? I can bring a salad that I make for special occasions. If that's ok?
Faith :XD:

Hooray! We've talked you into it!
:mrgreen: You need to PM 2Doods. She's hosting this time around. (We had our first get-together back in January and have met about every other month since, with a different hostess each time). She will give you her address and all the info you need. Excited to meet you soon!

The wedding is over so I can get onto the next fun event!
Having everyone meet at my house! :lol:
