Havin' fun!

I know you'll never guess what Esmeralda and I have been doing while I've been here in El Paso, so I'll just have to tell you! We made a quilt!! Yep, we did! I did the major amount of the work, but Esme got her stitches in there too! It's just squares, one purple, one another design, the next purple, then another design, then purple, etc. It looks SO PRETTY! We didn't quite finish it - you may be able to see the pins still in it -because we don't have the yarn or quilting needles (we couldn't find any!), so I'll bring yarn and my quilt needles when I come back in March. The back is a gold and white sheet and looks so nice! No stuffing - it's a summer quilt, and for summer quilts in El Paso, you need LIGHT!

Now you're in trouble because that made us want another quilt. Our first quilt is not summer weight... so now we need another one! It looks super nice!
