We both got pretty far along in the making of the quilt. I finished all the blocks but 4.
And then my quilt SAT on my design wall.
Life got crazy, other things went to the top of the list and Sunny Days has SAT for (yes, I'm embarrassed to admit) almost 2 months.
Lori, on the other hand went home and finished her quilt right away.
She would e-mail me and ask from time to time, how my Sunny Days was coming along.
I made excuses.
Now Lori and I are getting ready to go on another quilt retreat together in a few days, and I thought I'd better take Sunny Days with me and finally get it done.
As I was gathering up my blocks from the design wall...
Look what I found underneath one of the blocks.
You got me Lori!!
The note was written last April, waiting for discovery.
Lori and I had reminisced that as we were growing up, cherry life savers were our favorite flavor.
Thanks Lori! You are cherry flavor too!
Everything Lori does is cute. In fact, I think Lori must have been born cute.
Here she is in 1966. Pink hair dryer bonnet and all.
See you in a few days Lori!
