A Gift of Autumn


Last night my sister Kathy brought me a present for my 65th birthday and my retirement from the Loft.....I just had to share it with all of you.  It is Heart to Hands wonderful Autumn quilt!  I have put it on my guest bed and as you can see it looks wonderful!!!!!  Kathy made it for the store sample for last year's block of the month and I never dreamed she would be able to part with it.....but I feel so lucky to be the recipient!  I LOVE it!!!!!

  
Today is my birthday and I am enjoying all the emails, calls, posts on facebook.....Last night I celebrated with 5 of my friends and tomorrow night Gene and I will go to a play and dinner with my twin brother and his wife. Thanks to everyone for all your good wishes!

I hope this is a good day for you too.....Jo Ann
