House Closure

 

Two years ago today, we were moving out

of our yellow house.

 

 

I remember, because today's my anniversary and

I clearly remember that anniversary of

 multiple trips to the rental.

I also remember crying at how much stuff

there was in the garage.

Moving is tough.

 

 

We lived there for 10 years and even though we

were on large lots, the houses were close and

we shared a driveway with the neighbor.

 

 

The neighbor and our family ended up both moving

out of our homes the same week.

Everything was rushed.

I don't remember saying goodbye. 

I don't remember saying anything.

 

 

So I made a quilt to say goodbye. 

I like to take my time. :) 

(I stitched our house numbers and

 there's a little grey driveway between the two.)

Luckily they still live nearby.

  

 

This is Camille Roskelley's Dwell Quilt pattern

that is in her book - Simply Retro.

 

 

The pattern is fat quarterly friendly so I used Zen Chic's

fat quarters, Moda black Cross weave and

aqua minky on the back.

 

 

 

 

Here's to Goodbyes

and a little surprise;

they certainly won't

be expecting it. :)
