    I met this couple from Kansas at the laundry mat a couple of years ago when I was washing my quilts. She was a quilter and I new right away we were ment to have a friendship and invited them to my home. We talked and talked and went to quilts stores and became bestest buddies. They came to see us today and she brought me the most beautiful gift. Although not a quilt, I feel I had to share it with all of you. It is a crocheted doiley (sp) 36" round and looks beautiful on my kitchen table. I just love it. My mouth fell open when I saw it. Her quilt is the one on my avatar that I just quilted. Everything she does is fantastic and beautiful.

    Beautiful!!

    What a beautiful crocheted piece. I can just imagine the hours of work that went into making it. What a wonderful gift for you.

    Stunning! Superb gift. I lived in KS for 5 1/2 years, the generosity doesn't surprise me.

    What a beautiful gift, makes me want to go do some crocheting. Started one like that years ago for a tablecloth, finally finished it for a doily.
