    How absolutely wonderful. I hope I don't miss the pictures. There's nothing more special than working with children and nothing so wonderful for children than an interested adult - mentor.

    This is such a wonderful story. It is great to hear that children are interested in more things that TV and video games. Hopefully this will have a great impact on their lives in the future.

    You brought tears to my eyes too. Who would have thought that a simple book could bring such excitement & joy to so many kids. You truly have much to be proud of - you are making memories for these children that will last a lifetime. They are learning much more than quilting skills I'm sure. I can't wait to see pictures of all the wonderful creations!

    You are the best! It is so cool that these children are interested in sewing and making quilts. You can be sure that more than a few will carry what you teach them into their adult lives and maybe even be well known expert quilters. Children benefit so much more from an interested teacher who is more into her students than the money.

    Blessings on all of you who have blessed these hungry children the food for creation.

    You are one wonderful lady! What lucky children to have you as a teacher! And kudos to Mrs. Mac & Mrs. Crowley for their generosity!
