Quilting with Grammy Cloe

So the other day, actually on our way to our annual hike we saw Kyle's Grandma outside in front of her house. We stopped by to say hi and she told us that she was going to pester the ladies in her ward the next day to take some quilts home to tie. We offered to tie one for her and she offered to set it up at her house for us to do. So a couple weeks later there we were at her house tying a quilt. I don't remember who the quilts were for, but I'm sure it was a good cause. Kyle was quite the good quilter. I believe this is only his second, his first being the one I made him for his mission. So it as fun. His grandma had treats set out for us when we got there. And it didn't take long at all. And his grandma read us the latest gossip from the letter she had just received. So that was our quilting outting.
Kyle's sister and kids are in town now. Her oldest was a guest speaker for my presentation today and he was so cute and ate up the attention. Having 30+ people staring at him and laughing generously at everything he said totally egged him on. It was great. As soon as Connor was done my teacher said, 100%! You can sit down now--even though we hadn't presented anything but Connor yet. So, Rain, I hope this helped ease some of your boredom!

Thanks Kelli! I actually DID enjoy reading something new, and am also impressed with your and Kyle's ability to quilt. You are going the extra mile ALL the way around.

Kyle's grandma looks like a sweet lady. She will be a great grandma for your kids.
