    Unfortunately we can't take photos inside the taping since they are so busy then, but I'll try to get a picture with them in Houston! And I'll at least get a picture outside of the shooting. And maybe see if it's okay to get a picture with Captain John since he usually does the audience wrangling. He might have a second for a pic since he has to deal with us anyway, don't know. But I'll do my best without getting in the way!

    I'm so excited for the taping!!

      Maybe they would like to film the audience with Flat Rita in attendance? Perhaps Lilo would be receptive...after all she was at Quilt Colorado even if unofficially (she was on vacation.)

                      I know we can't compete with "The Taping", but our European Flat Rita is ready to rock'n'roll. Please, email me if you want me to post her to you after Festival of Quilts. I hope our 3D-Rita approves.

                              Very fetching Lorchen! I like the rakish angle of the hat - to the Kildare side as my mother used to say. I look forward to my trip to Birmingham.
