Some Quilting Chatter


It was an amazing Tuesday!!! I had a much needed break from life and was able to go back to my hometown and meet my best friend for lunch. My mom, Melody (my WW friend), and I met Sue (her blog is Quilting Chatter) at the Village Squire for a 3 hour lunch! It was so wonderful, I could not believe it was time to go so soon!
Not a great pic of us, with all the shadows and puffy eyes, but you get the idea. (it looks like we both have food on our chins, but we don't...I promise LOL) I miss her so much and though we email each other everyday, many times a day, it is not the same!!! With the weather getting nicer, I will need to make more trips up that way. 
I got the next baby quilt started.....
I will add borders tomorrow and get it marked too....basting will probably take place on Thursday. In the meantime, there is nothing in the hoop, and that will not work for me. I had my good ol stand-by here so I put it back  in the hoop.
Sassy was thrilled to see the UGRR Sampler come back out again! It is her favorite quilt EVER!
Cammy looked confused....she prefers the smaller quilts I have been working on.
I want to thank all of you who have prayed for my family over the years. Rita asked if I would share what is actually going on with Charlotte. We are dealing with the transition of Reactive Attachment Disorder in a child/young teen to Reactive Attachment Disorder in an older teen. If you look it up it will give you an idea of what we are battling. She has a more than moderate case and help is not so easily found. We keep trying though....someday we'll find it, I pray. 
So I am heading for my own form of therapy this evening....my needle and thread. A great close to a great day!!!
Since Google Reader closed (though mine seems to still be working), I moved over to Bloglovin. It seems fine so far! I hate change!

How fun to spend time with your friends :0)

It's nice that you have a project available to keep your hands busy.

Bren my heart is with you re Charlotte, though I have not been following your thread lately...bad pun!
I love to see Sassy so happy, and it is strange how one quilt will appeal more than another.
So glad you had a nice day off!
Give my regards to your lovely mother, and of course, to you, lovely lady.!! xxx
