Did you feel the tremors yesterday in stitching blogland??? Two stitching bloggers met by chance!
I went to Inspired Needle on a lark yesterday. I was on my way to meet some friends and had one hour before I needed to be there. I also needed a skein of thread and a piece of fabric. So, I made a rare Saturday morning pit stop at Inspired Needle.
I walked in and received my usual standard greeting of "Hello, Ms. Duet" by the lovely Cathy R., owner and operator of Inspired Needle. There was another shopper in the store who turned and said, "Laura?"
This other shopper turned out to be none other than Jeanne of Willow Tree Stitcher who lives in Arizona!!!! She was on her way from a family visit in Illinois to Midway Airport and had some time before her flight so she stopped by to check out Inspired Needle for the first time!!!!!
What a wonderful coincidence!!!!!! I wish I had been able to stay longer to look at charts and talk stitching!!!! Jeanne, it was wonderful to meet you and I hope your trip home was uneventful. It sure made my day to meet you!!!
I love how blogging connects us!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous coincidence!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day!

That is awesome. I sure hope we get a chance meeting one day too. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteGoosebumps! But good goosebumps. The odds of that happening are off the charts! Did you buy a lottery ticket?
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that! What fun! Glad you two bumped into each other!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun, it really is a small world!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! I need to take a road trip to check out the Inspired Needle.
ReplyDeleteHow fun!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so fun to unexpectly ran into someone like that
So nice to meet up like that!
ReplyDeleteThat's unbelievable!!!! I always told my kids that you better behave everywhere you go because you never know.........lol!! It's an interesting thought of how many times we may pass another blogger & never even know it!! Proof our cyber friends do exist!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how completely cool is that!?!
ReplyDeleteOMG - How awesome to run into Jeanne in Cathy's shop especially since your visit was on a whim. Cathy is the best - she comes to FL once in a while and has joined our EGA chapter as a plural. She has a bunch of us down here addicted to Inspired Needle and she has the BEST customer service in the land as far as I'm concerned. Cheers to all 3 of you! Mel
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! I need to go to the Inspired Needle again. I've just been once, but it's such a fun shop.
ReplyDeleteWELL what a wonderful chance meeting!!! How wonderful! :)
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I do hope I cross paths with a fellow blogger one day :) Did you make any purchases at the Inspired Needle?
