Kia Ora,
Today I met a quilting buddy of Tutu's. Yes, that's right, a South African in NZ. What's more, she told me all the goss on said Tutu (nudge, nudge - for a FQ I'll tell you anything you want to know, heck, for a FQ and chocolate I'll make up anything you want to know - how'm I doing, Ragmop?)
Well, I'm the fortunate one - Tutu's quilting friend has come to NZ to live, and is now looking for quilt groups around here. It was as if we'd been introduced in person. We looked at quilts, admired DD#1's quilt top, talked about various African fabrics (they sound really interesting), ate, drank, and laughed, and promised to do it again soon.
Thank you, Tutu. When are you coming to visit?
