quilt camp sound great. Your DG did a wonderful job on her quilts. Was her luggage overweight from taking them all back home?

We are having a HOT summer here in the desert. Some days pushed 120 degrees F, so we mostly stayed inside in the airconditioning. In Tacoma where Angela lives 80 is considered hot. We did go out to lunch and did some fabric shopping. I mailed a big box of cut fabrics and some quilts to her.

She did a wonderful job and I'm so happy for the two of you that you got to spend such quality time together. That pic of her at the sewing machine gave me a sudden wave of flashbacks of all the fun I had sitting at my grandmother's machine!! Thanks for the reminder of some very happy memories.
