My stash hasn’t changed much. 2/3 of a yd out for binding. Oh! I had to come back and add a yard I forgot about! I have gifted a yard to someone, they just don’t know it yet! So 1 & 2/3 yds out of my stash this week.
- Incoming Yardage to date: 84
- Outgoing Yardage to date: 118 & 1/12 yds.
- Total Stash Busted to date: 34 & 1/12 yds.
Today’s post is mostly for my dear, sweet friend…Anita. We became best friends in high school. Life has kept us apart from each other, physically, for about 12 years now. But the quilt I have on the machine now is Anita’s. This is a very special project for me! Twenty-seven years ago, would you have thought we would be working on a quilt together? 🙂 A little sneak peek for you, so you can tell me if you think I’m on the right track.
Now do tell me if you don’t like it! I’ll pick it out and start over! Really!
Working on this today got me thinking about this.
This was my wedding gift (my first marriage) from Anita, her mother and grandmother. Her grandmother made it. I have forgotten a lot of things over the years, but I remember that the card that accompanied it said they hoped I loved it as much as they loved me. The marriage lasted a whole five years. I had to choose some things to leave behind. This was not one of them. 🙂
