In 2014 my sister and I attended our first quilt retreat sponsored by "Quilt Taffy" in McCall Idaho. I met a mother and daughter duo, Peggy and Jen. Within the next year, I was quilting Peggy's quilts. She lived in California and I lived in Washington.
Fast forward to 2016, Peggy sent two quilts back because the stitching on the backs was messed up big time. I went on a three-day golf vacation and took one of the quilts with me, spending my spare time picking out stitches. It took me over a month to pick out both quilts and re-quilt them.
The last quilts that I quilted for Peggy were "Dr. Seuss on The Loose". Peggy was a retired teacher and gave the quilts to schools as part of their Dr. Seuss reading programs. Peggy passed away in 2018.
Last night I was on Facebook when I came across a video from "MadiMarieSchoolofSewing". Jennifer was showing some quilts that she would be selling Saturday in Redcrest California. I recognized one of the quilts that I had quilted for Peggy and messaged Jen to let her know that I wanted to buy it.
