Evy that made me sad, while its not necessary to do what PlanoDebbie did but damn how hard is it to take a picture or two write a letter and send it back? Flat people are not a thing here, If I ever get the chance to host a flat person I hope that I remember this quilt.
I hope our grandkids get to do a Flat Stanley (or female equivalent). What a great learning experience! Speaking of great learning experiences: I still have the pen pal from Australia that I acquired in third grade (probably through Weekly Reader). We have corresponded over 54 years, and have probably met 8 times (7 times in the US and once in Australia). She and her husband made our trip to AU a much more meaningful experience. Talk about a lifetime of learning and fun! One never knows what a simple gesture can mean for a child.
