  • My sister Emily found this postage stamp quilt treasure at an antique store in Ohio. She plans to repair a few spots and hand quilt it to finish it up.

    Mother is the first to finish up a project. She made this reversible ragged edge lap quilt from some flannel she found at the thrift store.

    This afternoon I was delighted to have a visit from some long time friends that I haven’t seen for years. Grace Anna and I go way back to Bank Church and high school days.

     Louise and I go back to preschool days when our parents took us to the Smokey Mountains. We grew up as childhood playmates in church and school.

    My sister Barbara doesn’t know it, but her grandbaby Brighton is learning to whistle at an early age.

    After church this morning we took the long way home and crossed over the slab at the Bank Church.

    My sister Sheila is showing us a wonderful quilt that she started years ago. I hope she can get it finished this week. She is such a busy hostess and taking such good care of us. Thank you so much, Sheila.

  • You and your sisters look a lot alike. I love that postage stamp quilt! I just made a little blanket out of old sweatshirts. I love making new things out of old. I also love the wedding quilt! Beautiful. God bless your week!

  • Oh, this is your sewing retreat! I know you are just having a blast! All those interesting projects ~ do keep us updated; I love to see your work. Sheila’s quilt is so lovely.

  • I think the last picture is my favorite :)   I thought that quilt she was holding looked familiar… it’s the one she gets out every year to work on :)   Bless my dear mom and her busy schedule!!! HA HA
