My sister from AZ and my bff and I get together a couple of times a year to celebrate our birthdays and of course QUILT!! Here's a couple of pictures from my first "quilting bee". Actually it was really a "tying bee" since that's what we did. But we had a great time with a couple of my sisters friends on a recent trip to AZ.

I put a couple of 5 inch borders on this to make it a king size

Here we are at a great store in the Denver area

You are so lucky to have a quilting sister. My sister can barely sew a button on. But I sure wish we lived closer so we could at least hang out. BTW...your quilt is really nice. Thanks for sharing.
