Oh my gosh Gail! If I lived in Australia, I would be there for sure. It sounds heavenly! OH, by the way, I was in a fabric shop here the other day and I was holding an Australian “Handmade” magazine and the lady that was helping me told me she had met the neatest ladies from Australia at quilt market…so I asked her if it was Gail Pan and she squealed and said YES!!! have you heard of her? Well, I told her about our my day with you and Sandra and she was so excited. She said to tell you that you two are the funnest ladies she has ever met and she hopes to see you again next quilt market. I don’t know her name and I was about to ask her the next time she paused to take a breath, LOL, but people behind me were getting quite irritated at our holding up a busy line visiting, **hanging my head in shame**. But as I walked away, she told me to tell you “Hi”. Don’t know who she was, but there you have it. Thought you would like to know that you made quite an impression on all the ladies in her group at market. Big Hugs coming your way…
