A Visit with Jenny

Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Company came to visit our town the first part of June.  Her trunk show was fabulous.  She is such a nice and down-to-earth person.  She brought her husband with her and he was just as nice as she.

One of my Cobble Court Quilt Circle friends came up for the event and we had a great time together.

The trunk show, from my prospective is captured in the photos below.

Meeting Jenny made me want to visit Hamilton MO even more.

A Visit to Biltmore

The Biltmore Estate is located in Ashville NC.  It's a grand example of life for the very wealthy in the early 1900s.



You could see the for miles

Not only is the house beautiful in its own way but the gardens are gorgeous.

Really too beautiful for words.  I enjoyed it so much that I purchased a season's pass.  I hope to make many more trips during different seasons.
