Friday Night Sew-In- A work in progress

My Friday Night Sew-In is still a work in progress!  My best friend, Laverne, cut out dutch dolls for me about a year ago.  We have worked on putting them all together and I am now in the process of sewing all the sashing on in able to be ready for the border and the quilting.  (Of course,  I still have some embellishing of the dolls to complete, also.)
This has been a long time in the making, it seems, but I am very encouraged that soon it will be done.  Thanks to Heidi and Bobbi for their inspiration to us all!
I am pretty excited about finishing this quilt, and we hope (Laverne and I) to get together for our weekend sew-in to work on it together.
Laverne is such an inspiration to me, also.  She never lets me give up on anything.  As a matter of fact, yesterday she called, and we have decided that we are going to write a book together, the subject of which we will disclose later.

I had a very good weekend, beginning with my sweet daughter, Valerie and her Sweet Hunter husband visiting me, and my other daughter, Karen coming to visit me on Saturday to stay a good while.  Karen just lives up the street, and sometimes we just run in and out in passing and don't spend a lot of time together, but yesterday she had time to stay awhile.  She is the daughter of mine who has her first grandson, Masun!  (My great-grandson!)
Then I had a wonderful phone conversation with Brenda who lives in Tennessee, and we just laughed and talked and enjoyed talking about the Lord and His goodness to us all.
I felt like she had been here also, after that conversation.
All in all, the weekend has been wonderful, especially after a wonderful service at our church today, with the lovely music and wonderful sermon.
Life is good!
This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!
