Patchworks of our life...

My oldest daughter has developed a love for quilting and belongs to a local quilting guild.
Though this is not one of her quilts, the members are active in presenting their work and on this particular day, they had projects to teach children the joys of quilting.

As a young girl, my daughter learned to sew when she would sneak socks out of my drawer and make puppets out of them.

A great hobby! It's nice to hear that the joys of quilting are being shared with the younger crowd. I often wonder about the future of hobbies like this as "electronic" hobbies proliferate among the younger crowd.

My mother made hundreds of those, and she used to put funny things in them too!. Great colors.

What a lovely tradition to carry on. So many are lost in our modern society.
