This past week-end Tom and I flew to Salt Lake City for the Semi-annual General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We rented suites in Salt Lake City and had three of our children, their spouses, and grand-daughters with us there. What GREAT fun.!!!!!

Therefore no work on the under water madness. I packed my by hand project and worked on it. I refer to it as “The Generations Unite”. I have 12 blocks that my mother embrodiered before her death. I am now making the setting blocks for this quilt which will have six generations represented — 1-My great-grandmother, 2-My grandmother, 3-My mother, 4-Me, 5-My daughters, 6-My grand-daughters.
This is one of the blocks that my mother made.
This is the setting block that I am making. Only 20 of these to make. This represents my Great-grandmother. All the quilts that I have seen that she made were either Double-wedding ring or Gloried nine-patch quilts.
This gives you an idea of how the quilt will look when the blocks are set together.
This project will keep me busy for a LONG time!!!!!!!
