I had lunch today with 3 of my quilting buddies. Candy, Doris & Janet (who is 1 day younger than me). We were celebrating Janet’s latest quilting award. Anyway, you know how you sit there and talk about all kinds of things, our conversation turned to our younger days. You know those crazy things you did as teenagers! Anyway, here’s part of the conversation..

Doris: So Janet have you always lived in Kansas?

Janet: No I lived in Missouri for awhile. I was born in KC MO

Me: So was I. Which hospital?

Janet: Trinity Lutheran Hospital

Me: So was I!

Janet: We lived on Campbell around 41st

Me: OH MY GOSH! We lived around 42nd and Campbell!

after that I can’t remember who said what but we had to have been in the same hospital nursery at the same time, because they always kept you in the hospital several days. I think Mom said she was in there 5 days when she had me. I was born around 4:30 in the afternoon and Janet was born the next day shortly before noon!

What are the odds of 2 babies being born at the same hospital within a day of each other, sharing the same nursery, living on the same street (we moved when I was 15 mo old), growing up and both becoming quilters and then meeting each other and becoming friends???????? Wow! That’s WILD!!

What are the odds of that?????

Here it is Monday again. I was really hoping to have this off the wall, but it’s still there. All I have left is to sew the top 3 row section onto the bottom 2 row section and it’s done and off the wall!!

Woohoo! I just finished the edge on a UFO. That’s always a good feeling. 🙂
I made this years ago from charm squares. We exchanged geometric prints and I had 2 of each print, so I was able to make the stars. I used more of them to make the Prarie points around the outside.

Now I’ll have to decide which UFO to tackle next. LOL!! It’s not like I don’t have many choices. 🙂

Can you believe this has been on the wall since March? I’m getting a bit tired of walking by and seeing it, so I need to get it done and off the wall!! LOL!! I worked a bit on it last week and now have 3 rows sewn together. Yea! I hope to have time this week to get the rest of the rows sewn and get it off the wall and into the needs to be quilted stack….(at least then I don’t have to look at it every day. LOL!!)
