I had the best day today.
My sister in law Alice, another friend of ours Kathie Snell and I sat down to do the hand sewing binding on a quilt Alice has made.
The quilt is so large it would take her quite a long time to sew on her own.
We enjoyed sitting around a table with the quilt on top and each of us on a side of our own and proceeded to sew at our own pace.
Much talking, and laughing and before we knew it, time for lunch.
Alice made us a wonderful lunch and we pigged out. Had a chance to see her newly improved sewing studio. She has added cabinets and a built in sewing area which we fell in love with.
Loved her studio before, but now with the improvements its even nicer.
After sewing today with the girls, I now understand why ladies have enjoyed their sewing bees of the past. How can you not have a good time, making beautiful quilts and spending time with good friends and family and terrific food.
I would do this again anytime anywhere.
Who needs a binding sewn on???
