Exciting news! 
I am in Atlanta, GA meeting with the "Sixth Man" travel team. We are working out the details of booking an entire cruise ship for a quilting adventure next summer.
The Sixth Man rents a boat (ok, it is really a ship) and fills it with "like-minded people"--like us--who are looking for a wonderful crafting adventure. (They have an Elvis cruise in the works--for those Elvis fans and impersonators!)
I will be hiring quilting talents and designers to lecture and teach and to entertain all on board.
Do you want to play? I will be posting more details as they come. 
In case you have missed me and posts on Quilter's Buzz...I have been busy opening a quilt shop,"Fresh Picked Fabrics" in Yorba Linda, CA.
Then, soon after opening, decided to move to a bigger location (7500 sq feet! yikes) in the same complex! We move early July. Find us at 3810 Prospect Ave. #A in Yorba Linda, CA 92886 714-223-1701.
I missed going to quilt market (and missed all my friends!), but caught up by reading everyone else's blogs and facebook entries.
I plan on getting back on track and writing more on Quilter's Buzz!

Hi, I'm on the hunt for Anna Maria Horner's Chocolate Lollipop fabric, specifically the dark brown with white designs on it (maybe it's called D1653-038?). Anybody know of a site that still sells it? Or have some you want to sell? I fell in love with it before I realized it's nowhere to be found! Thanks!
