It must have passed a year or so since I met Mónica, from the blog Mimosa Patchwork I met her in a course by Francesca Ogliari at La Tertulia del Patch, where I take patchwork lessons. I remember she sat next to me and we talked all through the course as if we had known each other for decades. It?s incredible how we all meet really nice people through this hobby and some become really good friends. She?s from Miranda de Ebro and my parents live in Vitoria, which is only half an hour travelling distance from her place, so we try to meet every now and then when I visit my parents.
El fin de semana pasado celebramos la comida de 25 aniversario de la graduación en EGB, en Vitoria. Me lo pasé fenomenal recordando los viejos tiempos con amigos y algunos profesores. Los chicos se quedaron en casa y me fui solita, así que decidí mandar un whatsapp a Mónica para quedar a tomar un café y así enseñarnos los mystery quilt de Veronique Requena (ella está haciendo el primero y yo terminando el de Miss Rose; a ver si os lo puedo enseñar en breve).
Nos lo pasamos fenomenal y terminé llegando tarde a comer en casa de mi hermana. Compartimos ideas de patch, nos enseñamos fotos de los proyectos en los que estábamos trabajando, hablamos del festival de patchwork de Sitges, y de mucho más?

Last weekend I had a 25th anniversary, since we left school, meeting in Vitoria. I had a great time remembering old times with my friends and some of the teachers. I left the boys at home and went by myself, so I decided to whatsapp Mónica in order to meet her for a coffee and show each other our mystery quilts from Veronique Requena (she?s doing the first one and I?m finishing the one from Miss Rose; hopefully I?ll be able to show it to you soon).
We had such a great time that I got late for lunch at my sister?s. We exchanged patchwork ideas, showed each other some of our projects, talked about the forecoming patchwork festival of Sitges, and so on?
Me gustaría compartir con vosotras la preciosa bolsita que me regaló, las telas que eligió son ideales (me encantan los lunares y las flores, ¡un acierto!). También me gustaría animaros a que visitéis su blog Mimosa Patchwork, para que veáis de primera mano los maravillosos proyectos que realiza.

I would like to share with all of you the beautiful pouch she gave me as a present, the fabrics she chose are gorgeous (I love polka dots and flowers, great choice!). I would also like to encourage you to visit her blog Mimosa Patchwork, in order to check by yourself the beautiful projects she makes.
Mimi, ¡me encanta! Muchísimas gracias por este maravilloso regalo y por estar ahí cuando te pido consejo con alguna que otra cosilla.
