Once we got through the ATV trail and discovered the very nice real road that led to the house, everything went smoothly. I owe my very generous friends for allowing us to stay in their wonderful home for the weekend. It was a wonderful place - quiet and peaceful - sitting in the woods on top of a mountain. I REALLY didn't want to leave.
Laura and I are both on the NC Quilt Symposium Board of Directors so we had a few meetings to go to once we check in on campus. I had a few extra meetings because I'm the incoming President...I know...who's big idea was that?
First thing, I had a big surprise. I had entered my Southern Album in the quilt show and got a first place ribbon! I was stunned. Best of all was I got one of their beautiful handmade ribbons.

There are so many great things about Symposium but one of the greatest is seeing quilting friends from all over and meeting new friends. I always come back inspired and recharged. I'm already looking forward to next year!
