Another baby quilt ready to send!

I have been working for awhile to make a baby quilt for my newest grandchild, Magdalena Lacher, whose mother, Ina Isermann, was our German exchange student in high school, and with whom we have maintained a close relationshipfor the (how many?) years since. The quilt, which I showed earlier on the frame, is finished and I will get it in the mail in the next couple of days. Then I will continue working on the one I'm making for Elliot Ephraim.





Ina is married to Germar Lacher and is now living in a suburb of London, where Germar is an adjutant to the Vice Admiral of the NATO fleet. Ina's mother, Marianne, was a very dear friend who unfortunately passed away several years ago, and I am hoping to fill in as Magdalena's "Oma", albeit in a very small way. Ina and I have been very close and I feel as if she is nearly a daughter. She is, in fact, the only red-headed and long-legged daugher I will ever have, and it looks as if she is giving me the red-headed grandchild I have always wanted!

Of course you know that the next trip that I really MUST take is to London to visit them. Now I just have to find some extra money lying around!
