I keep a book of sayings that I want to remember. Came across this one. Don't know who wrote it but it made me think of our quilts.

"All things are literally better, lovelier and more beloved for the imperfections that reflect the human effort that went in to their making."

That's John Ruskin, I think. I love it, too!

I LOVE sayings. Would you say "quotes"? Who cares, I love them! I have 2 pages I printed off years ago and look at them now and again. Some are funny and just make you feel good. Then I like the serious ones like the one Pal posted. Kahlil Gibran is one that has some that are deep but very meaningful. I just love his books! Ok, off subject, sorry.
Good one Pal!
