One reason I like to share photos of my quilts on Facebook is because they pop back up a decade or so later as a “memory” and make me smile when I see them. I remember not being able to wipe the smile off my face at the lizards I quilted to match the focus fabric in this little quilt. I even drove over to a nearby park to get a picture of it on the playground.
For a time, I enjoyed making “Quilts for Kids” through their official website and this was one of their free kits. They asked that you mail it back finished with another quilt of your own.
I quickly realized I could make and donate double the number of quilts if I didn’t pay shipping costs to send them out of state.
Many years ago a friend told me “do what you love, love what you do” and, I’ve been very fortunate to be able to do exactly that..
Which also brings back a memory of my all time favorite quote ~
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, ‘I used everything you gave me’. ~ Erma Bombeck
