[Oceanwavequilters] Sad News about One of Our Long-time Members

[Carole Poma]

I am sadden to hear of Stella's passing. Stella was a wonderful artist, who created many beautiful quilts. Stella was a very loving and giving person. When the Library wanted a quilt to be able to hold a raffle, Stella stepped up and provided a beautiful quilt. This world is a lesser place with her pass. 
My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and dear friends. 
Respectfully,

Carole Poma

She texted me about her current project, an Exploding Pineapple quilt with a Halloween theme, yesterday afternoon. We commiserated about seam rippers and the new ways they teach us to swear.
