Birthday Dinner and March Madness

Last evening we joined my parents and Louise Sternberg at the University Club to celebrate my dad turning 91 years young. We had a nice dinner and bottle of Tall Ships Chardonnay.
My folks and Louise.

This is March Madness. Ruth gave me a fat quarter of the two green fabrics and I got creative. It has been hand pieced while watching basketball games the last couple weeks. There are 5 of one block and 4 of another (7 inch blocks) - then a pieced border - reminds me of Crosspatch - a book by Pepper Cory.



It is bound and I started hand quilting last evening - while watching basketball, of course. Michigan State men and women are in the Sweet Sixteen - lots to watch this weekend.
Also a 5K - Race for the House on Saturday morning - with Ashley and family coming late this evening.

Update on the March Madness wall hanging - I gave it to the friends who we met at the Final Four games.........tickets for a quilt!!!!!!!!!!!
