What a wonderful retirement do we had yesterday for my friend. We first worked together for two years in 1996 then again for the last 4 years. This was my special gift to her:
There were tears:
And laughter at the pipe and slippers:
And funny speeches:
And she loved the quilt:
Happy retirement, you 'Lippy Plonk' ... you will be greatly missed :'/

It sounds like it was a great party. Your friend looks thrilled with her quilt.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt turned out lovely!! It's always 'see you later', never 'goodbye'.
ReplyDeleteIt is so cute and so is she. Retired? She looks like a twenty something.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift she will cherish and she will think of you every time she looks at it.
Great finish, my friend.
Absolutely stunning! Was that a Spanish restaurant you were in? Do you recommend it?!? Have a lovely weekend.
