My niece lives in the St. George area, where your quilt would be appropriate, but I've spent most of my time in the the northern part, up by Logan. I used to have relatives in Arizona and would drive over there from California to visit. Too hot for me to live there, but your quilt represented an aesthetic they loved. I don't have anyone in Arizona anymore, and I don't live in California now, so I don't know when I'll be there again. But truly, when I saw your beautiful quilt it reminded me of an Albuquerque, NM evening.

Often my parents would pack all seven of us up and we would take off to AZ for a few days. Then when my husbands parents moved to AZ in retirement, we would go and visit them there for a week at a time. i love the place. Utah I have only driven through. <br />quilting dash lady at comcast dot netLori Smanskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324730038327894401noreply@blogger.com
