Visit to quilting friend in Georgia

Lynda and Ted in front of guest house.

About three years ago, I did a program and workshop for the quilt guild in Clarksville GA. Lynda Doll was program chairman and my hostess. After Lynda and I met we found that we had so much in common. We both have children living in Solana Beach, CA and our grand daughters are in Daisy scouts together. We are both Master Gardeners, we love quilting and our husbands get along well.

Lynda and Ted invited us down this weekend and hosted a get-together for her art quilt group and their spouses. There was a huge snow/sleet storm expected but we felt we could get there before it started and back home after it melted a bit. Fortunately that area was spared.

Saturday morning we went in to Atlanta to the botanical gardens to see the new orchid exhibit. While it is not officially open and we didn't get to see the whole exhibit what we saw was breathtaking. I see several quilts in the photos I took.

Lynda and Ted have the most interesting little compound. It includes their cottage, a guest cottage, converted garage, and a studio house for their hobbies. They have both sun and shade to garden. Who could ask for more?
