I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO

I've been invited to  a quilt group meeting the second Thursday of each month.  Being a doll maker,  I may or may not fit in, although the president makes stuffed animals and toys.

Well! 43 quilters showed up as well as ten guests.  There was a social hour of sorts, then "refreshments" although I felt like a glutton for taking a small helping of everything but the sweets which were just store bought coffee cake.   I was introduced to the doll maker, although she isn't the current president.  She too, had a book of dolls she'd made that she carried with her.  Her book is much thicker than mine.  But she makes cloth dolls which can be made much faster than those sculpted from clay.  If I attend the next meeting, I'll take one of my dolls for "show and tell" - the fairy queen perhaps, since I have five or so copies of the ADQ issue it appeared in that can be shared with groups for the evening.

So - I will attend another meeting or two, offer copies of my teddy bear and Christmas stocking patterns, and have offered a Tea for Two gift basket as a door prize for the November "Tea and Scraps" party, but I don't see me becoming a dues-paying member.
