Another Gorgeous Quilt


Sampler Quilt

Hand quilted

I am always amazed at the absolutely beautiful quilts that start showing up the month before the Mennonite Country Auction (annually on the first Saturday in October). Here's another gorgeous one
that I saw Sunday -- not that I like blue or anything.

After Sunday School we went into Ritzville and met our friends Colleen and Dennis for lunch. As an added treat, the Earl of Lind was there as well. He's in his mid-eighties and quite a character. Earl just returned from a trip to Alaska with his three adult daughters. Sounds like they had a ball. This winter he's planning a trip to Cuba!

After lunch, we went over to Dennis and Colleen's to see their new travel trailer. They have a travel trailer toy hauler. They are making the toy garage into space for Dennis's shop for their silverplate jewelry business. Can you believe we were so busy ooing and ahing over the new rig to remember to take any pictures?

Dennis and Colleen make their winter base in Yuma and then travel to fairs in various communities in the Southwest to vend their jewelry. This way they won't have to pay for motel rooms on the road.

Today was another day at home. Forry is still sorting through his drawers in the bedroom. We filled another Goodwill bag with assorted shirts and jeans some of the shirts with logos from the early nineties...
