Another goodbye

One of our members just said her final earthly goodbye to her mom yesterday. It was a simple graveside service, just as her mother wished.

As we gathered for the service, the "quilting row" formed -- back row, of course.

On the whole we were well-behaved. There was a brief discussion as to how we could incorporate the service leaflet into a quilt and whether or not it would be suitable for paper piecing. But, other than that, I think we avoided our normal boisterous behavior.

It is so comforting to know that when we have to face these all too frequent events in our lives, the "quilting row" will be there to watch our back.
