Thankful Sunday--October 14, 2012

I am thankful for this kind woman who explained the quilts at the Apple Harvest Festival quilt show.


Last weekend Miss Landers and I attended a quilt show. As we were looking at the quilts, this woman struck up a conversation with us. She is a member of one of the local quilting groups so she knew a story for every quilt. She not only told us about the different patterns and techniques used to make them, she told us about the people who made them. It was the highlight of our day.

    1. The particular she is pointing to is made with the "stack and whack" method.

  2. It's great when someone takes the time to explain the history behind something to us. We never stop learning do we?

    1. I hope we never stop learning. That would be pretty boring.
