Happy Halloween–My dear friend Margie

Today is Halloween and is one of my favorite holidays.  As a kid I loved to go trick-or-treating and as an adult I love seeing all the kids dressed up and having so much fun. 

It’s hard to believe but it’s been 7 years since my friendship group “The Wednesday Wacko’s” attempted to celebrate Christmas in July.  In a typical Wacko move for some reason we didn’t make it by July and we rescheduled it for September and again had to reschedule it for October.  That year I was so thrilled that my friend Margie picked my name to make a gift.  And what a gift it was.  All hand appliqued even some of those itty bitty pieces. 

This is one of my prized possessions.  Margie and I shared a love of Halloween and she made me this wonderful wall hanging.

Unfortunately my dear, sweet Margie had a massive stroke and we lost her 4 years ago today.  How ironic that she found her way to heaven on one of our favorite days.

Love you Margie!!!
