    I need to sign up for the coin class in Ballard. I think I know how to get there. Oh how I wish you’d teach on the east side. I guess I’ll need to get over my fear of driving in Seattle.

      At some point I’ll get some samples together for Quiltworks. You can do it and the coin class is my favorite to teach.
