Quilt Show!

I'm a happy girl today!  I found out about a quilting and sewing event in nearby Lakeland FL through a Facebook group for RV Quilters.  It has been 2 years since I have been able to go to this kind of event, so I snapped up a ticket and Bob drove me to the auditorium for the show.  I felt like a kid going to a birthday party!

This was actually not entirely a quilt show, more about textile arts in general.  There were workshops and classes, presentations and displays.  And booths for vendors to grab your attention and credit card!  I wandered around the auditorium, enjoying the time spent with women who share the same interests as I do.  

I liked some of these small quilts in an exhibit by the Modern Quilt Guild.

I poked around all of the vendor booths, looking for anything new and unique to me.  I picked up a couple small things and ordered one to be mailed to me.  I did not feel any need to buy fabric, since soon I will be back home and my stash there will look like new again!

While I was doing my thing, Bob was at a park nearby where he could walk, read and, likely nap!  It was a good day all around!  

This is our last night in the state of Florida, we are starting to head north and west towards Minnesota.  Our impressions of Florida:  very nice temperatures and mostly good humidity, so many people, so much building, excellent white sand beaches, an extreme difference between low and high income, loved the keys and Everglades, diverse nature.  And we really like Key Lime Pie!
