    Thank you for your comments. We don't know how long we will be doing this. At our guild meeting in 2 weeks, I will have an idea of what has been accomplished so far. Yesterday, I saw 4 quilt tops made from my orphan blocks and the blocks I created for this. I am rather disabled, and can't sit for the time of these sessions, but we all work as we are able. I do know from reactions I have seen that quilts have tremendous healing power.

    My oldest brother was in that mess. He was evacuated and spent 5 days in a friends's house with 5 other evacuees. Their house did not burn as the firemen stopped the fire from crossing Hwy 20. They are helping at the Moose Lodge shelter. They asked for monetary donations from the family so they could help. They are both teachers and they know of 20 teachers and 2 principals that have lost their homes. One elementary school also lost. I sent a check and they ended up with $850.00 to go to Walmart and get under ware, socks and night clothes. One elderly lady was going through some of the bins and my sis in law went over and asked what she was looking for. She needed a slip as she did not feel properly dressed without one. So sis-in-law went and got her one. Just makes me cry thinking of them. I have one quilt in a box ready to go out Monday.
