No, he pretty much waits until summer to fly across the country! When he went to school out there he came home each Christmas... now he's paying for the tickets! There was one Christmas that he was 48 hours getting home... including 10 hours sitting on the tarmac in Vancouver waiting for the snow to clear! He spent his 17th birthday sitting in an airline provided hotel room waiting for Toronto Airport to reopen after a massive snow storm. He likes summer commutes WAY better!

He owns his own house in Newfoundland and teaches at a school in British Columbia but we still call it Ryan's room!
This is Franie's quilt!
I don't think there is anything more beautiful than a sampler quilt. I love to make them. You did a beautiful job. Love the sampler blocks - been there - done that and look forward to continue on the 48 block quilt I just started. Good work. Edie

Who would think all browns would be so beautiful? Gosh, it is so neat and you opened my mind another color possibility. It will be so neat in Ryans room. thanks so much for sharing.
I'm curious about the quilt under the sampler, is it an all quilted piece?
