UGH! Know that feeling! Haven't been to Disneyworld (ever), but I have
been to Kennedy twice now. Hasn't changed since the first time!

Thanks! Ami said that it was beautiful! I told her that I was still a
beginning quilter and that it is one of the first 20 I made and she said
that you couldn't tell by looking at it and that I had done a great job on
!
There was also a Sports World convention there at the same time we were. The
only bathrooms in the building were on our side so the other group got to
alk
through and see all of the quilts on their way to the restrooms. There were
two quilts that they kept stopping and staring at. One was the 12 Days of
Christmas done in applique (gorgeous quilt) and the other was MINE!!! I was
so tickled! One man even expressed an interest in buying one of the quilts
and asked me if any of them were for sale. I told him that I would have to
check with the quilt's owner and asked which one he was interested in (he had
spent a lot of time looking at 12 Days). To my surprise he pointed to mine!
He said that he liked the 12 Days, but that mine was a quilt that he would
love
to have on his bed!! I declined his offer of $800 for the quilt, but gave
him my name and number and told him to call early next year if he wanted a
quilt made. Even told him that I could do another one in the same type
colors which pleased him greatly. Maybe I will hear from him next year!
Later!,
Pat
