The excitement is building. Three of my friends and myself are going to the North Carolina Quilt Symposium next week. We have signed up for fun classes. I myself am taking Augusta Coles “Curved Log Cabin, and Judith Baker Montano’s “Beaded Garden Pouch”. Well, the 4 of us are hardly shrinking violets. But just in case we were in danger of fading into the background we have chosen avatars for ourselves and I have embroidered them onto t-shirts. These Sew Ladies are from Loralie Designs. We have named our group of talented ladies “The Real Housewives of Virginia Beach”! I hope North Carolina is ready for us!
