Thread: Drunkard's Path Story

I was out of town for a few days and when I came home I had gotten a quilt magazine in the mail. I found it in my husband's bedtime reading stack. I questioned him about it and he said he wanted to read about the "Drunkard's Path." Needless to say he was kind of disapointed it was a quilt pattern, not a story about a drunkard. He has had 8 years sober.

I will have to make him a quilt soon.... It may be a Drunkard's Path. Phannie

What a runny and heartwarming story! Congratulate him for me and may he have 80 more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was it the June issue of Quilter's World? My darling surprised me with it after coming home from the grocery store. Said liked the colors and pattern of the quilt on the front which is the Drunkard's Path!!! and now wants one!

That's so sweet that he wanted to read about Drunkard's Path - shows he was thinking about his sobriety. Congratulations to you both. And you definitely need to make him a Drunkard's Path quilt in celebration.

Yes it was. It is a beautiful quilt and I do have one my grandmother-in-law made. I think I will have to "Man" up the colors some.

Thanks for the kind words. He works everyday to stay sober, Like I work everyday to keep weight off. He is a great supporter.

how funny, and sweet. you will deffinatly have to make him one in his fav colors. maybe get him in on making it with you and maybe talk to his sponsor about making or writing something special for the quilt.
