I'm a new quilter and see many patterns I'm reluctant to try. Then I see what she does and she can't even see. I am blessed to see the beautiful fabrics and patterns as they go together.

That was great, what an inspiration to see people over come something like blindness to prove they are not handicapped. Good for her.

I have to say I laugh every time this is posted about 20 times now because every time I am in a slump or feeling sorry for myself because my back hurts someone kind enough post this to remind me that my "disability" should not take over me I take over it! I love to quilt and I thank you so much for posting this!!!!
