Great review Sylvia – wish I could have gone. Did Sarah enjoy herself?!!

Thanks Abigail. Yes, I think she did. She could not believe how many people were there and how fabulous the quilts were. I am thinking of taking her along to see Harrogate next month as well. We will turn her to the quilty side before much longer.
