Quiltworks First Friday

Thank you all for your kind and compassionate words at the loss of my Father in Law. Because we are the only family that lives in town our home has been the center of funeral planning, family and food.

I was able to get away Friday evening to meet up with Bonnie and Randy for Quiltworks First Friday event and dinner afterwards. It was a much needed outing.

 The Juniperberries group was highlighted and the featured quilter was Pat Wellman. All of the quilts were wonderful and were the style I make and enjoy so much.








My talented friend Phyllis made this to honor her mother)




I am not at home and not using my home computer so these are not cropped or organized.

As a family we had planned to go to a Mariner's game and that is where we are going tonight. I just wish George would have been able to make it.

Have a lovely day.

    Lori, I'm sure George would have wanted you to go with the entire family to see your local boy play for the Yankees. Have a wonderful time!!! You deserve it! And Friday night was great fun!

    So sorry to hear that you have lost 2 Dads so close together. I am sure your father in law will be sitting & cheering on the teams at the game tonight.

    I was sorry to read of your loss, and losing both your father and FIL so close together--that's so very difficulty to deal with.
    I'm glad you were able to spend a little time with friends and quilts as you deal with your grief.

    Those 2 feathered star medallion quilts are amazing! It was a great show! Certainly meeting friends at the First Friday was good for your soul. I want to go to FF sometime - maybe when we visit my BIL/SIL in Prineville.
