Who would have thought a few months ago when we started this little quilt group, that we’d all become such dear friends so quickly!  Today we met at the home of Kristen Sumsion in Park City.  She is a delight!  We had a delicious lunch, then shared our recent projects.

Melissa is binding this posy quilt.

I brought my English Paper Pieced Stars quilt to show.  Several of them are working on hexagon quilts with the same method.  This is another quilt that’s been in the works for many years.

Caryl finished 2 beautiful patriotic quilts since we last saw her.  They are fantastic!

And I brought my finished Stars in the Garden to share.

And then it was time for another batch of goodbyes.  It’s a little easier when I think “I’ll only be gone one summer.”  Before you know it, I’ll be back.

I stopped in Midway on the way home to say goodbye to my dear friend and companion, Marry Ellen Edmunds.  We laughed and cried together as we have so many times in the past.  Each time gets a little harder.  She is so dear to me.
