Quilt Camp in honor of Rose 2007



I belong to "The No-Rules Wendsday Night Quilt group that sometimes meets on Thursdays", LOL, and as crazy as the name seems the group is crazier. They are all alot of fun and each one of the ladies that comes bring a special spark to the group. We had such a good time, some quilted, some scrapbooked, some made cards, some knitted or crocheted. But we all had a wonderful time. We overlook the lake and it was so crisp and clear and cold up there this year. On Saturday night, after dinner, Dawn and Marta and I went into the spa. Brrrrrr, the wind was so cold so the spa felt great once we were in, the hot water and the wind biting at our faces. It was really wonderful just to have some time to visit with each other in such a lovely place. The saddest part about the trip was that we lost our Rose this past year, she had been a part of the group for I think about 20 years. Anyway, we did camp in remembrance of her. The gifts and all the auction items were themed with roses. And then to add to the sadness one of the other members also lost her husband suddenly and didn't come and our superior leader is moving to Tennessee. So needless to say camp was bittersweet this year. Life is so fleeting, so short, it must be appreciated. I didn't get too much accomplished and will post what I did soon.
