Hello Friend --

Although I know many of you cannot attend this sale, I decided to send it to our entire list of Quilting in the Country friends.

Marilyn Brophy, my first employer in the quilting world, died last winter. You may remember that I wrote about her in my weekly e-letter after her funeral. Marilyn and her sister, Dee, owned the first quilt shop in Montana in the 1970’s. We also honored both the special sisters at one of our Quilting in the Country outdoor quilt shows.

Marilyn’s daughter, who I also worked with, sent me this notice of Marilyn’s estate sale. Things have changed in the nearly 40 years since Marilyn started collecting. It will be a unique experience if you can go.

Recently, I drove by Marilyn’s condo. I wanted to see if the lace curtain was still in her window. It was!

Marilyn was filled with Joy! I want to go by her sale to experience that. Every day, Marilyn made room for joy.

After you’ve visited the sale come by and see us! The gardens are getting more beautiful every day.

Jane
