I hope she she is doing better. I am sure she find comfort in the quilt.

What a story about your first quilt.

The sugar skull fabric was used on the back of a graduation quilt. If you get it, please say a prayer for the young lady that received it. She had a stroke 10 days before graduation and had a 2nd one a few days after graduation. They don't know what caused the strokes and she is undergoing tests.

On a happier note, I have been married for 46 years with 2 grown children with no grandchildren in sight. Oh well, they both have jobs and support themselves so that will have to do.

I first started sewing in elementary school through 4-H. My first quilt was made in the early 70's following the instructions in a magazine. It was tied and made of flannel. When my poor husband took it to the laundermat it disintegrated in the dryer. He felt so bad, but I was glad he did it before I gave it to my friend.

My first boom was number 3. I've been in continuously since, but originally if there were 2 groups, they each got their own boom number instead of different named groups in the same boom.
