Stitched Together

I got a surprise package in the mail
 
Love Surprises!!! 
 
I was sure I hadn't ordered anything from Missouri Star...
What a nice surprise...
 
Missouri had asked for quilts with a story 
so 
I submitted my Wedding Ring and Pat Jones Glacier Star
 
Our quilts made it to the 3rd edition of Stitched Together!!
 
 How fun is that!  

I hope that Pat can find a copy to read it for herself!!

 Our friendship was the creation of two beautiful quilts.

I won't spoil the story for you...so look for a copy of Stitched Together near you!! 

You'll never guess where I am reading my copy?!? 

On the beach...in Hawaii...

Traded snow and cold  for surf and sand....

 

In the airport we met some girls on their way to Mexico 

 

It wasn't a good start to their vacation....

 

Their plane was late by 3 hours

Then they got the news that the resort was ON FIRE! 

I suggested they come to Hawaii 

 We still left before they had!!

However....

 Justin is holding down the fort and there are water issues and 100 thirsty cows!

Hope it isn't something too serious.

Yeeesh

Only gone ONE day....

Aloha 

Christa
