Birthday Quilts for Friends

Two of my Friends have Birthdays this week. I made each of them a small wall hanging quilt. This first one is for my pal Marci. She loves these colors and is always trying to get me to steal quilts at shows that are these colors. I always tell her to do her own dirty work! Hopefully giving her this quilt will stop her from trying to start me in a life of crime.

This quilt is for my Friend Gretchen. She works with my Husband. She is a pal. She comes over and sits on the patio with me and has a glass of wine and she makes the best artichoke dip that she brings too! Yum!

Today we had some rain. It is the first time I have seen the ground that wet since we moved here. It is supposed to rain more tomorrow. I love the view off our front porch. It is still a little overcast. It reminds me that Fall is here in Brown Land.

Saturday at Kate's House

I meant to post these before now. My friend Jeanne invited me to go to a quilt group that meets at a Friend of hers, house. The house was Kate's Mother in Law's house. She died a few years ago and Kate's Husband could not bring himself to sell it so Kate decided to turn it into her Quilt House. She has moved everything there. All her stash, etc. It is really cute. She has all kinds of quilting and sewing items decorating it.

I took these pictures. It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed myself very much. Thanks Kate for letting me come. Here is Kathleen, Pattie, Doreen, and Kate.

And Jan, who just wanted to know if she could change the needle position on her sewing machine.
