I do get to spend Saturday at a trunk show and "Sit and Sew" with Kaye England, so that will make up for alittle of my disappointment. Post lots of pictures for us "stay at homes".

DH asked what we need to wear at the dinner. I said I didn't think it matter(yes, he knows he has to have something on!). I thought I would wear jeans. Is this a problem with the restaurant?

LOL!! No nekked Lorens!! A lot of the folks will be coming right from the festival/convention center, so whatever you plan to wear that day will be fine! Comfortable shoes work too! The Quilt/Fashion police are not invited!! Of course, I was caught so off guard last year that everyone could have been nekked, and I would not have noticed!!! :shock:

Whoo Hoo!!! We have 60 attending the dinner!! Our largest gathering yet! As to what to wear...you will be in Texas, bluejeans are fine!! Please wear comfortable shoes as it will be a long day.

The dinner is at Don Patron Bar and Grill, 500 Dallas on November 3rd. We will gather at 6:30. The meal with tea, tax and gratuity will be $22.00 per person. Please bring cash in the exact amount (no envelope necessary), I will check your name off the list as I receive your money. This has worked well in the past.

Mixed drinks will be available. You may want to bring some extra cash as the waiters will collect when the drinks are delivered to the table.

The reservation is under Myers.

Don Patron's is located behind the Hyatt. The buses will not stop at this location. Last year taxi's were $6.00 for anywhere downtown.

See y'all soon! Safe travels!

Happy Quilting,

Shiner TX
