Ice Blossom and Cedar… thank you both for sharing and confirming THE BEST of the quilting community that we ALL know and LOVE! I am SO ENCOURAGED and INSPIRED to hear of these stories. They are a part of who we have become in the quilting community. Its our journey and our EXAMPLE to others so that they too can learn the gift of sharing with others this world so desperately needs. It has been said, that WE NEED TO BE THE CHANGE WE WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD. I agree!
