Another face to face meeting today!
I met Susan from Chicago today! She is in Florida, to escort her Mother home.
They are in Dade City, which is just about 15 min. from our place. We met at noon at the LQS, Quilts on Plum Lane. This shop is only a few months old, but has a lovely selection of fabrics. I had promised DH that I wouldn't buy any more fabric until we see if we can squeeze all my already purchased treasures into the car, but Susan found a coordinate for an odd coloured panel she had previously purchased. We then picked up her Aunt Hazel and her Mother and continued on to lunch at a local restaurant called "Lunch on Limoge". It is a wonderful place, and is usually busy during the winter, so they suggest reservations. We had a great lunch, and the four of us talked, laughed, compared notes on just about everything (you know, the usual meet-up stuff). Her Mother, Ann is a wonderful 89 years young! It always amazes me, how much we all have in common. Susan and I (also Susan) both have DH with the same first name, although mine is mostly known by his middle name, and we both have 2 sons, only a few years different in age. She told me about plans for the next spring quilt show, and suggested that we return to Kingston via Chicago next year, so we can attend! Susan, from Kingston ON quilting in Florida (what else?) |
