"You don't just luck into things as much as you would like to think you do. You build step by step, whether it's friendships or opportunities." ~ Barbara Bush
Last week our Quilt Guild held a quilt retreat. The theme was "Out of this World UFOs". It was so much fun! We had a make and take each day and a mini class on binding a quilt. One of our members, Marilyn did a trunk show or her mini quilts. We had a very nice meal each day, including the first day when we all went to lunch at a local restaurant. We had lots of free sewing time to complete projects that we were working on and we played some games for prizes. Each day we went home with lots of treats and gifts. The best part of all is making new friends and getting to know each other better.

Barbara Bush was one of our great first ladies. I read this book quite a few years ago and really enjoyed it. With her passing it brought back thoughts to my mind of this memorable book.
