Yesterday was tatting Tuesday and quilt guild night but I cancelled both. I had the good fortune of going to see/meet Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville.com. What a treat! Five of us hopped into Helen's van and drove over to the big town of Keller, Tx. We went to the Bear Creek Quilt Guild meeting last night. ( Bear Creek Quilt Guild was so nice to us too! What a wonderful guild. If you get a chance, go see that guild. They are a small but very busy guild. Their members do alot of nice quilts. They brought quilts that they had done from Bonnie's website and showed them last night. It was so much fun to see these too.) Bonnie was the speaker for the night and she did a great trunk show too. What a treat!!! I have been following Bonnie for as long as I can remember and I've made several quilts from her website. I now have all of her books. I just got her newest book last night! She was so much fun to listen to and see her and her wonderful quilts in person. It was a fun night but I am exhausted today. I did take a few pictures and I'll see if any of those turned out...I didn't get home until late last night so I'll check when I get home tonight after my knitting class. I wanted to take a class from her while she's here but there's no way I can take off for that...Boo hoo hoo..Oh well, at least I was able to get to meet her and laugh and have a good time with my buddies too.

I am also jealous! What a treat! I hope you got lots of good info to share with our group tomorrow night!
sounds like lots of fun...what will you make from her new book?
She was at our guild the last week of January. I had the pleasure of being her driver. Bonnie is so much fun and her workshops are even more fun.
Isn't Bonnie the greatest? I've been privileged to meet her twice. She's such a sweetheart :-).
I'm sure I'd be "goo-goo-Star-struck" if I met Bonnie! Thanks for sharing your great fortune!
What fun! I got to see Bonnie's trunk show last fall and it was the best!
Lucky you. I'm glad you got to her her lecture and see her quilts in person.
You lucky bum! I am green with envy! I have been a Bonnie groupie forever! Think I'll go work on something Bonnie. :)
