I saw your demonstration 2 years ago on one of the sewing shows. I have only made one quilt and that was a baby quilt 14 years ago. Four years ago we lost our oldest granddaughter at the age of 17. She was crazy about sewing and started making quilts and purses on her own, to give to family and friends. I gave her a sewing machine on her last Christmas. A couple of years ago her mother gave me all of the material she had stashed and quilt pieces she had already cut. Didn't quite know what to do with it until I saw your program. It took me awhile to go through the material, still to many memories I guess. Every year around her birthday the members of our church do a Birthday Bash fund raiser. She would have been 21 this year. We raise money for a food bank that we started in her memory. We have grown from once a month and 12 families to twice a month to 65 families. We also have opened a Thrift Spot once a week. It can work the volunteers to exhaustion, but is such a good cause no one seems to mind. So a long story short thank you for the inspiration so that I now know what to do with her stash. It will make her Mom and Dad a nice quilt and maybe enough for a small throw for me. After the fund raiser I will be ordering the pressing sheet and a couple of your instructions. They will simplify making a quilt for me.

Nice one! If I could write like this I would be well chuffed. The more I read articles of such quality as this (which is rare), the more I think there might be a future for the Net. Keep it up, as it were.
