    ...and how right you are!!! While it's very intimidating for me because I will never have the talent it takes to make an art quilt, I LOVE looking at them and appreciating everything that went into making them!

    Precious...and her being in the foster care system, there is no way to know what she has been through in her short, sweet life already. Thank you for this story...I am now inspired to go finish the quilts started for my grandsons!! While not foster kids, still I know their response will be as sweet.

    What a wonderful story. Thank you for being so kind to this little girl who may have suffered terribly before she came to her foster Mom.
