My friend Amy arrived Monday evening at LAX from Wyoming for a Christmas visit. We decided to give each other her visit to California as our gift to each other and I am so happy she's here!! We have had a wonderful visit so far and we still have 4 full days of fun ahead of us! Prior to Amy's arrival Penny, Rita and I gathered together to sew and to celebrate Rita's birthday. Thanks to our friend Paula, Penny and I were able to present Rita with this ...

It's a barn Quilt Star!! Broken Dishes is the pattern and created by the Quincy Barn Quilt Project designer Carolyn McKinney! Rita seemed very pleased to get and Penny and were so excited to give it to her! Isn't Penny's holiday staircase beautiful! | |

Penny with her gifts from Rita, we both received two bottles of wine and sewing machine covers!! |

You have got to love these bottles of wine! What could be better for quilters then "Running with Scissors" brand of wine! |

On Wednesday Amy and I met with a long time friend of hers for lunch in the quaint little village of Claremont. We decided to have lunch at Espeau's and look what was covering the ceiling ....

Yes mam, those are thousands and thousands of peppermint candy canes! The "boys" got them all up there in 3 mornings ... absolutely amazing! |
