Terry’s Thoughtful Thursday - April 26, 2007

by Terry Crawford

Terry's Thoughtful Thursday
Project Comforting Virginia Update
 
    Another Thursday! I am partial to Thursdays; always have been. I believe it goes back to the many years that I taught in the public school systems. I knew “hump dayâ€? (Wednesday) was over, yet it was not quite TGIF yet, so Thursday became a day to look forward to. Weird, eh?
     


Enchie, Ontario, Canada

     Today’s topic is short and sweet. It is simply an update on the that was begun a week ago.

    There are quite a few quilts in progress and we have two (2) ready to go in the mail (shown below). I am awaiting an address in which to send them to and hope to have it by next Wednesday (05/02/07).
 
 

     Thank you to all that are participating in this. Many lives have been negatively impacted by this tragic event on the east coast, but with our help, we can help others as they struggle to put their lives back together. It is not a coincidence that us piecing together quilts helps others piece their lives back together, is it?

    If you are working on a project that is related to the Virginia tragedy, please share it with us? Also, stay tuned to the Quilting By Design Web site or Quilting Passion for further updates!
