Those Mesa Ladies/ August

 Yesterday was my favorite day of the month

A day to quilt 

with 

Those Mesa Ladies

Amanda brought her latest Work In Progress

This month we met in the cultural hall of the church

while electrical work was being done

through out the building.

We each bring our own projects to work on.

Most bring

Show and Tell

Peg just got her Block of The Month quilt

back from the quilter.

Right away she threw it into the washer and dryer

making it nice and soft and cuddly.

Peg also just finished her

Quilty Fun Sampler

designed by Lori Holt/ Bee In My Bonnet

The back is as cute as the front.

Christine worked on binding her latest.

 The back is a soft Minky

Peg and Christine

I feel so honored to be part of this Mesa Quilt group.

The ladies are very generous and giving.

Peg brought us each a gift

of homemade 

"Blessing Bread"

 The message was so sweet

that it brought tears to our eyes.

We all have our challenges

and could use an extra Blessing.

A lot more than quilting 

goes on when we meet together.

 Each year on this day

As a family tradition,

Peg makes bread in honor of her mother's birthday.

A gift to offer

comfort, peace, love and hope 

to those who receive it.

Thank you Peg for always knowing how to 

be a friend.

And, as always

the luncheon was absolutely delicious.

The 11 (yes 11!) Electricians in the building came by

fed them all Hawaiian Sliders.

Can you see why I admire these ladies so much?
