My Quilting Ladies

Today is Thursday and I always smile on Thursdays!  I gather with about forty wonderful women in the afternoon and then about another forty wonderful women in the evening.


These ladies are artists…their palettes include wonderful colors and textures.  Fabrics and threads and pieces of yarn are used to create treasures for all time.  Some of their treasures make beds more comfy and beautiful, some hang on the walls in homes across the world.  Many tables around the country look better because of these women and their talent. 

We spend a lot of time talking and encouraging and helping each other.  We share our greatest joys and our most difficult trials with one another.  We reckon it’s about 90% therapy and 10% creativity.  The most important things we will ever make are strong relationships.  These will last a lifetime and beyond.  

These wonderful, generous, caring women create the most beautiful pieces of art, but most importantly they make time to share with others and in the process make a lot of people smile….including me!
