Turns out Terri Thayer is currently living near my hometown. Is it still my hometown if I was born and lived there 18 years but have been living somewhere else for 25 years?
My cool story about Terri is that I had just seen a post on Patchwork Penguin's blog about Terri's books. I had looked her up and written down the names of her books. The next day I go into my local quilt store (which is an hour and a half away from my hometown) and the email sign up sheet is sitting there at the register with Terri Thayer's name written in as the last entry! It just popped out at me because I had just looked her up the previous day. I send Terri an email (from the link on her website, not lifted from the list in the store, although I did notice they are identical) and sure enough she was in the store just a little while prior to when I was there. She stopped in on her way further down the road to a Ricky Tims Super Seminar. She had never been in our local quilt shop before. Small, small world!
Terri's books:
• Wild Goose Chase
• Old Maid's Puzzle
