Textile Mills in Lowell, Mass and a New Quilting Friend
I’d never been to New Hampshire until this week, and only to Massachusetts once. It surprised me to hear locals call it “Mass,” as if Massachusetts is just too much of a mouthful.

Michelle of Little Pup Designs picked me up at the airport on behalf of the Hannah Dustin Quilt Guild in Hudson, NH.
Being from the Great Plains, I’ve sometimes been led to believe that New England folks are cold and aloof. But I haven’t found that to be true. When your hostess hails you at the airport holding a nearly life-size logo for your little quilting business, you know it’s going to be a good week.
