The next best thing to fabric shopping is eating a good lunch while lingering over the fabric finds. In the last week, Pat and I went to Sisters. After shopping at the Stitching Post and seeing an art quilt exhibit, we went to Angeline’s for lunch. Happy Birthday Pat! She is now nine months older than I am.

This week we went to lunch at Soba Noodle in downtown Bend before browsing quilts at an annual festival of quilts at the Aspen Ridge Retirement Community in Bend, Oregon. This photo shows Pat and I with our favorite (wait)person. He remembers our favorite food items and is always smiling: thank you, Phil- you make the world a little better place.
