I am starting to collate names and such of those coming! Last year we used a yahoo group and had a database of who was coming when and with whom... it is still up! This group is for members of RCTQ and their friends who will be attending the IQF in Houston. It is by invitation only. (this IS your invite, so please send us an email telling us who you are if you would like to join! ) This keeps some of our info more secure and keeps RCTQ less cluttered with our chitter chatter.

and if you can't make it til 2006, you can let me know that too! Just make sure you tell me which year you'll be there!

We send messages about who's got stuff in the show and when we're planning on being there. Closer to time we can swap cell phone #'s if we choose and where we're staying so we can reach each other for "after hours activities" like dinner, museums, touring, etc...

My trusty sidekick, the proficient herder of wet cats, our very own KCK will most likely not make it again this year :( so you all will have to bear with me and my less organized brain to gather everyone. Anyone who wants to toss in their hat for the sidekick position is most welcome! Especially if you know your way around town better than I :~)

Kevin and i usually did a museum tour with a bunch of RCTQers on thursday and whomever can make it meets up in the cafeteria at lunch on Friday and Saturday. We've had as many as 3 dozen of us at once!!

i, erm, still have TDB in my studio so i won't have to hunt down Sarah to get it from her. I should be able to bring it to lunch on Saturday... maybe on Friday as well.

So if you think you are coming, go to the yahoo site and drop me a note!

A big, huge, double wonderful. Wonderful that you all are going to get to celebrate quilting at Houston's IQF. And wonderful that they will have all of those folks out and placed somewhere better. I've agonized many times about how horrible it would be to sleep on a cot lined up with miles of other cots - what if you needed a drink of water, what if nature called, what if you wanted to cry in private? What if you couldn't find your child or your QI? But - my mind is finally back running on two channels - what if they left just a few cots for the rctq gang so you could rest amidst all those lovely quilts and vendors and friends? Now, there's a picture. Polly

Those same thoughts about the evacuees had occurred to me, too, Polly. I'm just delighted that they'll be in better places!

As for the cots, I wonder if they'd leave our pool boy there, too, so we could have foot massages? ;)
