So Do You Quilt?

This is SewGirl from California (and her husband.) Her real name is Nancy. I met Nancy several years ago when I was waiting at a gate in Boston's Logan Airport for my flight to LA. I was bringing my diamond ring to give to my son. I asked a lady if she could keep an eye on my suitcase while I went to the ladies' room. It was SewGirl. When I got back I pointed to the luggage tag she had on her bag. It was handmade. She was surprised as she said she didn't meet many quilters while traveling.

We got to chatting and I told her I made quilts and gave her my card. I also told the story of the "secret" I was carrying. I give my cards to a lot of people, but I'm pretty sure most get tossed. Nancy confesses she checked out my blog to see the kind of quilts I made, but mostly to see the end story of the ring.

That was in 2013, and SewGirl has been reading my blog ever since, and although she comments rarely, we are still in touch. I love hearing from her.

I love reading all comments and like it even better when I get to meet my readers in person.
