    This is a quilt I am making my best friend. I met her on the school bus the first day of school in 1971. This school year will be 40 years I have had to put up with her. lol She is a wonderful kind person and I am making this for her table. I have never done flying geese so I made a paperpiece template and went from there. I will post again when finished. I have a couple more things to do to the borders.

    Your quilt is beautiful, and congratulations on your long friendship. I have been friends with a wonderful person for 57 years, I hardly ever see her but when we get together or talk on the phone it is as if we see one another every day. I am going to follow your example and make her a quilt, something I should have done long ago. Thanks for sharing.
