Thanks

dorothy: I received it and responded - also giving you my email address
in any case my response is: "yes of course - no problem at all" and if you let me know what you need - i'm sure I can provide more
if you didn't the response with my email address - let me know

Barb, so glad you like it. I love working with these old patterns. Some I have in my collection are from the early 1920's, hard to believe they are almost 100 years old and still very functional.

Lotti, when will you be in Chicago?

Hello Ritzy
I'm flying in: Wednesday 30. March 2016
expected arrival 11:23 am (UA 1070 from Burlington VT
I have that afternoon / evening FREEEEEEEEEE :P :P :P

exhibition booth set-up: 31st March (have to be at the exhibition Hall at the McCormick Place by noon) & 1st April (all day)
exhibition: 2.-4. April (tear-down / packing in afternoon/evening of 4th April)
flying out: Wednesday 5. April 2016 at 7 pm (19:05 LX 9 to Zurich)
so I have most of that day FREEEEEEEEEEEEE (will have to be at the airport by latest 4:30 pm / check-in by 5 pm for international flights)

if you and/or anyone else are in the area - that would be FABULOUS ! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
but knowing distances go far quickly - I'm NOT expecting anyone.

Lotti--
I'm assuming you will be staying near the airport so traveling time for me would be 80 min. That does not include bad weather or accidents on the road. I would love to meet up with you. I will have to wait and see until we get closer to the time. I have marked the 30th on the calendar and I will try really, really hard to make it--would love to see you. ritzy

[loise98]

Ritzy, I do hope you get to meet up with Lotti! Here's hoping all things work together for good!

I think Lotti qualifies as the "Official Lounge Ambassador' -OLA! That includes mug ruggers, lounge lizards, Robin Rowers, and WOTTROTers!

OLA! Can't wait to see you!

Ritzy, this year I've been very lucky, they've booked us all into the Palmer House Hilton, 17 E Monroe St. - so we have a fairly easy commute to the McCormick Place and for dinners in the evenings - not always get to stay so luxuriously
but I should be able to "store" my luggage at the airport (O'Hare) - and meet you there. As I'm flying in from Vermont I won't have any delays caused by security/customs. and I do hope the weather should be good by then ...
anyway - we'll see closer to the time - still have a little while to go

Brenda - Really like the Whimsy of the airplane block, I can imagine the delight of kid enjoying an Airplane quilt!
Thanks again!

Lotti, I am green with envy over your travel plans, I am sure you will have a great time meeting up with everyone.

[loise98]

Ritzy & Lotti, I am so, so happy the two of you will get to meet. I am certain we will all see photos of the visit. Ofcourse, we are also hoping to see pictures of you with Terrie and Andree too. This is exciting.

Actually Lotti, Palmer House is closer than O'Hare! Oh, I hope I get to see you!
