Back from Colorado!

Well, had a great time at my nephew's wedding in Loveland (great place for a
wedding, huh?) but the only glitch was that it rained from the minute we
stepped off the plane to the minute we boarded for the return trip 5 days
later! Everyone there was thrilled with the rain since they are in the
middle of a bad drought, but it was supposed to be an outdoor wedding! As
it turned out, they were married indoors in front of a beautiful floor to
ceiling big stone fireplace. It was a lovely ceremony and my nephew was
thrilled that so many made the trip from the east coast.

I made them a quilt as part of their wedding gift and they were stunned -
they had no clue I was making one for them. I had not been able to figure
out a name for the quilt - they normally name themselves somewhere along the
way, but I wasn't hearing anything. I had written in their card that their
love may keep them warm but one the rare occasion that it didn't, this would
be plan B. Then it hit me - "Plan B" and the quilt had a name!

No S.E.X on this trip - too many group outings and not too many shops, but
my sister called me yesterday and she had found several shops in Estes Park
and bought me some FQs - bless her heart!

I will post pix of the wedding quilt and the first baby quilt that I have
now finished soon. I'm in the middle of getting the last items done for my
DD baby shower on Sunday. She has no clue.........

It's good to be back!

forward to the pix...

It sounds like the wedding was gorgeous, despite the weather! I can
understand how everyone from the area would be glad of the rain, though;
we're in the middle of the same severe drought and are hoping for some
relief soon. Best of luck with the surprise shower, and I can't wait to
see your pics!
