Attempting my 1st Mystery Quilt! Thank you to Bonnie Hunter, who designed the quilt and the fun ladies I'm in a local group with who will keep me on track...or at least provide some laughter and ideas while I stumble through this.

Quilters' Quest 2014, Day 1
www.quiltersquest.org
For the past year I have been part of the quilters' quest team getting ready for this year's event which is from Nov 7 - 16. Today and tomorrow I am just another quester driving to visit all 10 shops, find scavenger hunt items, get my passport stamped and win my finishing bag. Today we covered 4 stores. The crazy cousin, material girls, cottonseed glory and bear's paw. Due to a little late start, the distance between stores and TRAFFIC, we didn't get to 5 shops as planned but will try to make up time tomorrow.
We ended in Gaithersburg, MD and had dinner at Uncle Julio's.
If you are friends with me on FB you'll see a few photos from today's adventure. I don't have the mobile app to upload pics here just yet. Shout out to Dara who reminded me I should be posting pics of the projects I'm doing! Give the pup a hug from VA!
Getting some sleep before the drive tomorrow. Until tomorrow...
