where is everyone from

It's just a shame that something like a sponsorship into a quilt guild of
all things could be misconstrued in any way. Oh well you're probably better
off. Southold is a bit of a drive. I don't drive at all at night unless I
absolutely have to. Night blindness. And I just got new bifocals. LOL.

The show is next weekend -- Oct 16th and 17th It is a guild, but it's
been closed for a long time. I am not a member. You have to be
sponsored. I am a teacher. A parent of a student was going to sponsor
me a few years ago and my principal got wind of it and thought it
wasn't a good idea. I didn't have tenure. That parent has since moved.
So, instead, I just enjoy the shows. I considered joining ELIQG, but
the meetings are in Southold, and that's just too far for me to drive
by myself at night.

Good luck in Vegas!

Hauppauge is another one that gets really strange pronunciations.

Barb, have you been back to Lake County lately?
Grayslake has grown a lot! The second Grayslake High School opened this
fall. There's a quilt shop downtown where the library used to be. (The new
library is now 7 years old.)

How can that be? I thought Ames was directly north of Des Moines; at
least that's what it looks like in my road atlas. If that is correct,
it
seems like anything northwest of Des Moines would also be west of Ames.

I visit Dainty Supplies quite often. Have you been to Boyes in Chester
- le - Street? It has a small fabric department but I have found quite
a few bits and pieces there. There is also a fabric stall on Durham
indoor market, I've been to their factory unit this morning as it's only
open on a Friday. They are also doing one day quilting lessons at the
weekend, I'm doing one on applique in November - I'm really looking
forward to it

I've been to the Durham stall. Do you also know about the fabric shop
down the hill? (can't remember what it's called, but it's down a little
pathway with steps, almost opposite Woolworths... ). I'm not often up
that way, so getting time to go to places like Chester-le-Street is
hard. Nowt there fer t'lads to do!

Next time I'm up that way, I'll tell you I'm on the way, and we can meet
at Dainty! One day I really WILL buy some of their silk batting!

I'm from Marlborough, MA, which everyone spells "Marlboro." Same thing with
the neighboring towns of Northboro, Southboro and Westboro. It seems like you
only see the name with the "ugh" added if it's an official item of some kind.
