Got that terrific fabric for the Quilt Club today. The kids will be thrilled. Two of kids today told me that they had so much fun they didn't want to leave yesterday. Most of them brought more squares home with them over the weekend to work on.



One of the other kids asked them why they were doing it if they couldn't keep it and they looked at him like he had 2 heads and told him because it was a nice thing to do and a way to learn so that if you wanted to make yourself a quilt you could. Linda PATCHogue, NY


Linda, it seems that one child is learning the joy of giving. I find in my quilting teaching, that there are more self-esteem and positive attitude lessons than there are expected things like which end of a needle to thread. The plan could be to teach appliqué and you wind up teaching basic first-aid. You just never know. DH and I are both astounded at your own teaching project. Good, good for you. Polly
