I've been reading some of the stories in the FW30s book... So touching how the depression affected lives. I love how their faith got them through those rough times. They were so appreciative of all the little things we now just take for granted. I mentioned this to hubby and he pointed out how they had to deal with a big war coming right on the heels of the depression, too. Really, it was this adversity that made them "the Greatest Generation"... Just look at what we've got now!
QNS, how nice that you've got hand quilters to send your quilts to. I don't know of any in my area. Only one lady in my quilting group hand quilts, and not all that much.
