Lunch with blogging friends!

Lunch yesterday with Pat and Kathy went great!  We met in Bethany Beach Delaware at a restaurant called "Cottage Inn" and had a wonderful lunch.  We talked, laughed and enjoyed ourselves! 

From left to right:  Me, my mom Suzanne, Pat (A Little of this a Little of Pat) and Kathy (Creative Urges).  Pat gave me this adorable present.  She knows the author of this gift book and she used her quilt block in the book as you can see.  This is Pat's page, see the little kitty in the window?  Very cute! 

After lunch we headed inland for a visit to a wonderful quilt shop called .....Serendipity in Dagsboro, Delaware.  Pat wanted to show this quilt show to me since I was complaining that there was not a shop near our summer beach house.  She just had to show me and boy am I glad she did!  The ladies at this shop are just wonderful.  They are knowledgeable, helpful and kind.  A very laid back shopping experience.  I was very happy and had to go shopping!  Here is a picture of the ladies and the shop:

Dear Jane A8 Florence Nightengale (the red one above)

Dear Jane A7 Dad's Dots (the yellow one, renamed)

At Serindipity I bought 5 yards of Moda's off white high quality cotton to start my Dear Jane blocks.  I started last night and made two of them by hand.  I am loving this but these are the easy ones!  They get really difficult!  It will be a challenge thats for sure.  Well, we had a great day and I can't wait to do it again sometime soon.
