Just One Star
When checking out some of the blogs that I follow, I found a link to a project by Moda for the soldiers in Afghanistan. http://www.unitednotions.com/LA_just_one_star.pdf If you would like to take part in this, go to the website and download all the information and the pattern. Sounds like a delightful thing to do for our servicemen. I will make one and get it off this week. You might mention this to your quilting buddies in case they don't get the blog checked out.

What Happened To?
That said, the quilts that were completed turned out very nice and I know the folks at Shelter House will be very appreciative.
I have a complete set sorted, with all the binding cut, ready to go if anyone is interested (beware, this is not for the faint of heart - it is a pretty tedious pattern). Feel free to contact me.
Sorry for the fuzzy photos - not a really good day for taking pictures...

The Kindness of Strangers
Imagine a little boy or girl...
...unsure what is happening
...maybe scared or upset
...needing some kind of comfort to get them through a rough patch.
Imagine that child receiving one of these wonderful quilts..
...from a stranger
...willing to share their talents to make something beautiful
...to help make things less scarey, less upsetting.

Something that brings comfort when a little child needs it most.
That's what I love about our Guild - the kindness members bring through their generous spirit. Last meeting nine bright and colorful quilts were given to me to donate where needed most. The person who did this will remain anonymous (which I think she would appreciate) - but a big THANK YOU on behalf of that little child. Your gift is very much appreciated.

Volunteers Required

Next week is National Assisted Living Week. On Sept 18th, from 1-2 pm, members of our Guild will be visiting Colonial Villa to share their love of quilting with residents. The theme for next week is Traditions of the Heart - how fitting that we have been asked to help celebrate this week. If you are interesting in participating, please contact Julie Oman. And thanks in advance for helping.
