They were nine year old Katie and her Grammy, Barbara. How did we know that they were such big fans? Perhaps it was because they own a life-size cutout of Eleanor that they dress up for all the holidays.\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/road-to-california\/are-you-an-eleanor-burnsquilt-in-a-day-fan-too\/attachment\/barbara-and-katie\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1622\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1622\" alt=\"Barbara and Katie\" src=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Barbara-and-Katie-768x1024.jpg\" width=\"538\" height=\"717\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Barbara lives in Northern California. She drives down to Rancho Cucamonga in Southern California every three months to visit Katie and her family. Sewing is a big part of her visits. Barbara is always bringing along batting, fabric, and her sewing machine in her car which has the license plate, <b>\u26652BQLTN<\/b>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Ever since Katie was 3 or 4, she wanted to sew along with her Grammy. Together they have made lots of pillows, pillow cases, placemats and one quilt. Katie got her own <i>Brother <\/i>sewing machine the week of the show. Currently, Barbara is helping Katie make a quilt on her new machine that she plans to enter in next year\u2019s youth sewing challenge for Road to California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This was Barbara and Katie\u2019s second visit to Road. It is their favorite show. They like to \u201cget material together to make different things and create.\u201d And of course, they love being able to see Eleanor Burns in person. They sat on the front row and Katie even got to be a part of Eleanor\u2019s show. What a thrill for this young fan!!!<a href=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/road-to-california\/are-you-an-eleanor-burnsquilt-in-a-day-fan-too\/attachment\/img_6638\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1621\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1621\" alt=\"img_6638\" src=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_6638.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"585\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Have you ever met your idol in person?
