Hello CCQG Members,

It’s hard to believe that summer is almost over. I recently went camping with my mom. She will only go with me if I find a waterfront site. I enjoy my time with her, plus she does all the cooking. As I said in the last issue, I took my 22 month old grandson on his first camping trip. It was a disaster! Several injuries, sleepless night, a thunderstorm and then I couldn’t find the car keys when I had packed up to leave. Although we had some good times at the beach and campsite, I came to the conclusion that he was too young to take camping. In July, I went camping in Mackinaw City for a week with a group of friends. We went to Mackinaw Island for the day, Kitch-iti-kipi in the Upper Peninsula, biking and shopping. I have two more camping trips planned; one in Montague and the last one in Holland.

How many of you have participated in the All Michigan Shop Hop? I managed to visit 41 shops. One of our members, Chelane Prillar, was able to make it to all 82 shops! How many shops were you able to visit? It was a great experience driving all around Michigan and finding unique stores. Several stores have become my favorites, and I will definitely visit when I am in the area.

I am also excited about the AQS Quilt Show in Grand Rapids, August 21-24. I will have a wall quilt exhibited, and I am taking several classes. I have registered for a thread painting class along with a foundation piecing class. Of course, shopping with the vendors and looking at all the quilts is fun too! Enjoy all the fun activities of summer before fall arrives!

Happy Quilting, Kathy Kittle
