Hi everyone, Bet you have been wondering what I have been doing. I was just waiting to share Brat's and my tops with my quilt guild today so now I did that and our few little members loved seeing both of them. So that means that TaDa!!! I am now ready to send it off to her. I know you aren't in a hurry for this Miss Linda so will post the picture for you. I think we will all be happy to see them completely finished but mine won't get to be that way until later this year. (Sorry folks) Too much else going on. I do love it though and so glad to finally have a red & white quilt. I do have to confess, even though Brat said I didn't have to. I got the fabric to do the braid border and went merrily on my way, making the braid like I learned in my November '13 class. Sewed it on and I thought it looked super and then it hit me...Oh my gosh! I was SUPPOSED to make a 6.5 inch border and this was definitely not one. Thankfully, sweet Brat said it would be alright since mine was the last round and so I leave it to her to figure out what to put on next. I do think it turned out beautiful though even with my bad last round. So here is the picture and Brat, it will be on its way to you later this week when I go to the P.O. I did learn a lot from this fun RR tho and got to know some wonderful quilters. Keep in touch!

Finally took a pic of the shelf I bought in Healdsburg. Im going away this weekend and the repaint job is on DH honey do list. Pink is just not my color! It's about 4 1/2 feet wide or so. I have the perfect wall for it

Sandy, I am in love with my quilt. thank you and everyone else for your hard work. its stunningly gorgeous. I will have a hard time parting with it! I am thinking maybe one more big round and I will have it quilted. I know that Carolina will just love it. she is such a sweetie its perfect for her. I do want to work with you all again this was so much fun.
I have some news I received today. For those not on facebook I got a call from the porter transplant team. It appears.. I AM ON THE LIST!!! I MADE IT!!! yahoooooo!!! doing such a happy dance I am worn out from the excitement this afternoon. Seriously how grand is that? then I call my daughter she is in tears over this and goes on to tell me its a miracle day for her. A co worker and her hubby knew she is stressing not seeing me and shared some of their yearly tithe they save for things such as this (10 percent of their income) and gave her an airplane ticket to come see me. wowsa. so she was sobbing she was so excited in every way. I feel so blessed. I am one lucky woman. yuppers this is lotto winning in my book. kidneys and KIDS. yahoo twice over.
