A Fantastic Day

Today I had a fantastic visit with 2 former college friends in Pa. It was a spur of the moment thing. We found out that the 3 of us were free today so we decided to get together at the home of one of the friends. We chatted for awhile, had a glass of wine and some munchies then decided to visit a local antique shop for awhile. When we returned to our friends home we had dinner with her and her husband. He had to leave for a meeting and we gals chatted the night away. I just returned home a few minutes ago. It was so nice to be together. It was a fantastic day! Her home is lovely. She showed me a quilt she is working on since we share that interest. I love the colors she is using. It will be a gift for a new bride. The pattern she is using is called the "lovers knot". It has me thinking of MAYBE doing something similar for a wedding gift for a wedding I will be invited to attend. All that I'd need to know is the colors the couple plan to use in their home. I even have a kit that may work for that purpose. A quilt as a gift wouldn't have to be put on a bed it could be for a "throw" and just something to cuddle up with before a fireplace on a cold winter's day. I have a quilt to finish for my sister for Christmas, but I could conceivably start on this other one after that. It's still in the "idea" or "planning" stage. I haven't committed my self to doing it yet. Only time will tell what I decide to do. Stay tuned!
