I have been waiting for this day for the last 2 years…spending a day with my Auntie Mavis (her husband was youngest brother to my dad), besides being my auntie I was blessed to have them as godparents! So many special memories over the years! And…we are still making memories together!
Today our day began by going to the Lee’s Quilt Shed where Auntie Mavis was in her “element” and I was so far out of mine! But she was very patient with me as we looked through quilt panels to choose from. I chose one she had already done, saw it last week, and she found one she liked for her next project. First picture has her checking my pinning skills! I started hand stitching and finished 3 petals! It’s a start!
Quotes from Auntie Mavis: Think outline, outline, outline! Me: Got it! Outline, outline, outline!
Me: My stitches aren’t even!
Auntie Mavis: My mom always said “Doesn’t matter cuz you can’t see it from a trottin’ horse!!” 😊
Such fun looking at her quilt panels, learning from her years of quilting! A dream come true!
