Last month the stitching group here in town was working on a book (god bless shutterfly) with a compilation of pics that we had from retreats and stitching days and our stories of Cathey for her dear 'Junior'. Here is a peek at our dear friend Cathey over the years...
Stitching away
Convincing my son at my bridesmaid dress fitting that we could NOT go to McDonald's because she'd been 'kicked out'. He believed her because she had a tattoo!! Almost 8 years later he still believed!!
Getting Gorgeous
Look at that hair...envy!!
Grand Champion, I've lost count of how many times I came runner up to her ;)
Chowing down on my birthday
Gorgeous Bridesmaid
Her husband could not take her eyes off of her the entire day
No wonder!
And again
The number of pictures I received of this was overwhelming, apparently we made quite the impression
There's that smile!
A long time ago, when those bangs were acceptable!!
More stitching
She set the bar high for stash accumulation
As I said, more silliness
Even more Wildwood fun
Back in the short hair days
My beautiful friend, you will be in my heart always
