Default A wonderful thought
Wanted to share with all you quilters a very special story. Martin Richard who died in the Boston bombing has a little sister Jane who lost a leg. She is an Irish Dancer. The Irish Dance community has
re-quested thta the Irish Dance Schools contribute a t-shirt from their schools to make Jane a quilt. The FB site is called----Wrapping Jane in Our Love.
