Even with a busy Travel day,
I had time to web the sashings for
'On the Go' quilt one-way.
The sashing helps the quilt get bigger.
I'll need to clip the webbed strings and add the long sashings and then do borders.
I'm liking the arrangement since I left it
In the floor.
Lots of moving colors around.

Saturday started at a Football game.
The weather was chilly and I was thankful Paul reminded me to bring a coat.
We put in 2 Quilts as well.
They were shared with DD#2 family.
I don't know if they Won!
We left to head up to the Memorial for Paul's Neighbor & Classmate in Mesa.
1st stop was to place some Autumn flowers
On Mom & Dad Crowther's Grave.
His Sister, 3 niece's and Brother were there.
4 little grandnephews, too.
They were grateful Uncle Paul and I brought quilts to share. BowTie L/E and Jack of Hearts mystery by Heather that was made for Paul's Mother.
Under the black coat there is a baby.
That westerly wind brought the Chill!
Lots of memories of this Classmate and Neighbor were told and a favorite song was shared by his wife and daughter.
"Spirit in the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum.
Sung by the Eagles.
I thought it was a Creedence Clearwater Revival song from the 70's.
It was too cold to stay and eat the food.
We all filled a plate and took it in our cars.
Paul drove by our old place, where all of our children were brought after they were born.
43 years ago the trees weren't there.
See how they tower over the house?
And the sagging roof on the old Shed.
The circles have replaced the Syphon tubes that watered this field.
Driving down a memory lane!
A very full day! Always a good idea to have a few quilts on hand. I have handed them out at a few family gatherings myself.
