Accordions, Cuckoo Clocks and Quilt Coats

This week, the girls had a whole lot of fun catching up! Rochelle took us down memory lane with a fantastic story about her college friend Jarma and her accordion skills, all while sharing the latest scoop on her clogging classes. But the excitement didn't stop there; it was a rollercoaster of credit card adventures, including a swift response to fraud and some relatable tales of less-than-stellar customer service. In the midst of all the grown-up business, there was even chat about attending the American State Fair and the logistics of getting a cuckoo clock cleaned—because who doesn't need to discuss classic timepieces alongside credit card woes?

We heard all about Rochelle and Lance’s very cold backyard camping trip, which was a true test of gear and endurance, followed by a thrilling outdoor climbing session complete with rope rescue techniques. Of course, the quilting world was buzzing, with exciting updates on a sold-out Quilt Coat class that both Leslie and Rochelle are joining, and a discussion about machine cleaning that turned into a DIY success story! Travel plans were also on the itinerary, covering everything from smart hotel swaps to navigating a fascinating multi-city route to Paris, including vital tips for staying healthy and comfy on international flights. Plus, there's 7 yards of Dallas Cowboy fabric just waiting for a quilt design idea—how fun is that!
