I had a fun day today...I went to my quilt class, where when I started out quilting, I started out doing it by hand for a machine scared the daylights out of me:)). I usually take in stitchery for a quilt, binding, etc. Today, we worked on a quilt together. There were 3 of us working together, all using our own hoops hand quilting a quilt for a lady in our group that had a stroke a year ago and even though she is doing really good, she has had a time trying to get this quilt done. (she started it before the stroke)She doesn't usually miss often, but, had to today due to apptmts. The 3 of us sat on a corner w/our own hoops and hand quilted away. We have her all done except a couple of her drawn circles and there we left the needle in for her and tucked it back into her bag. She will come next week and we will again, not speak a word of what was done and she will think she has done all of this by herself. We discussed as we sat so close everything from kids in school, husbands and how we can solve all the world's problems. There is what is good about hand quilting. Moments shared together like that. I just thought 'how awesome'!! Just thought I'd share some more today..with you:))Skeat
