Dear Friends,
Life is what happens while we're busy making other plans and quilting. This is certainly true for me. At my doctor's suggestion, I will be having heart surgery next week. I am fortunate to have an excellent staff at Quilt in a Day to carry on as I recuperate.
I appreciate your prayers and good wishes as I mend.
... Sincerely,
Eleanor Burns
