I spent some time with my dear friend Kate today. She used to live about 45 minutes away from me, & she just moved into a house that is less than 2 miles from my house. I was so excited to have her near by. I like to tell people that it's all her fault that I am a quilter today. She is the one who got me started. She first piqued my interest, when we were working together in an Internal Medicine office. The same office where I first got to know my other dear friend, Mindy. They are both like sisters to me.
This was the birthday card I gave Kate today. Her birthday was a few days ago. I made 3 very similar cards.

We sat & worked on dresses. Kate had to finish one for her daughter Hannah, for a party tonight. I did some seam ripping on (Mindy's DD) Hope's Irish Dance dress that I hadn't touched since before Christmas.

Kate's cat really liked Hope's dress.

I also finished up on the earrings,

slider necklace/pin,

& pin,

which I mounted on to a card, & dropped it off at Mindy's, to be donated to an auction for the Irish Dance School, this coming Sunday.

so nice to have a friend close to you I just love the cards and thanks for the comment on my blog
Thanks for the card and the pin Bee! They are beautiful!! It actually arrived a couple of days ago. We've been in the middle of school play season.
So being mentioned in a blog titled "Old Friends" makes me feel like I'm aged like a cheese or wine...but you do realize that I'm still 18 right? LOL
Thanks for coming to the show yesterday and the great donation as such short notice/request....you're such a sweetheart!
Beautiful card and jewelry!
Love the pins and earings very nicely done.
Its great having friends close, my good friend Mandy only lives about 15-20 minutes away from me.
How wonderful that your dear friend and textile co conspirator has joined your neighborhood.
We expect great things from you two!
