Welcome to another great Moda blog hop! This one is all about friendship.

And what do friends do? They quilt together!

I’ll bet you didn’t know that some pretty popular and famous best friends are quilters.

Remember Lucy and Ethel?

Those two were always talking about new quilt patterns! They couldn’t wait to start sewing everyday when Ricky and Fred left for work. This picture was taken at a quilt retreat somewhere in New York.

And how about Rachael and Monica?

I’ll never forget the day they were so upset about the mean judge at the quilt show who didn’t give them the blue ribbon!

And who could forget those great episodes of Zena the warrior princess and her best quilting friend Gabriella?

Those two would sew together into the wee hours of the morning. Actually it was Zena who had the original idea for the rotary cutter. The inspiration came from that suit of armor she always wore.

Even tough chicks quilt!

Remember the episode of Cagney and Lacey when they gave Mary a ride in the cop car to find some new fat quarter bundles? I was so jealous. They ran the flashing lights and siren the whole way.

So grab your best quilting buddies and get sewing!
