It really brought tears to my eyes.
Dotty - I already have a block from the book picked out -- Seven Stars, or Seven Sisters, now to draft it. I don't have red fabric, hmmm - I'm going back to the mountains tomorrow & there was a wonderful quilt shop on the way.
Must have been phenomenal to have been at the show in person.
I am stoked. Also I overcame my fears and found that my town has a quilt guild - will be joining in October.

How thoughtful! I remember seeing photos from that exhibit and loved seeing them. I know you will treasure the book AND your friend!
I've always wanted to do a red and white quilt, too! I have a very old red and white Pineapple quilt that my mother had. Sadly, my sisters and I do not remember who quilted it. I've become very committed to labeling my quilts (and talking about it too)...
The red fabric in this quilt is just beautiful... good luck with your red and white!!

What a generous and thoughtful friend you have, she must treasure your friendship! I've seen pictures of that show, it looked amazing-as a School media specialist (what used to be librarian) I can understand your over the moon feelings!
