This is a very wonderful story, showing selflessness in giving, as well as teaching we can use what we have without dipping into that "rainy day" jar. Quilting started out as a necessity to give one warmth, and a little comfort to the eye. Somehow, this art has become so competitive in sizes, stitches, colors etc., the true meaning of this art form is lost by some. This story of the couple in the church group, I think they were trying to bring back the meaning of what quilting is really all about....without spending a lot of money.
