I had the pleasure of being involved in a very sweet gesture recently.
You may know that the History Quilter lost her dad earlier this year. I am fortunate enough to still have my parents, so I can’t imagine her pain. Being a public figure like History Quilter generates a lot of empathy. That empathy generated a quilt for her from Melissa of Sew Bittersweet Designs, Shanna of Fiber of All Sorts and Jenna of Sew Happy Geek. Susan met all of these wonderful women via Twitter and her podcast.
In the strange quirks of the Internet world meeting the Real World, I met Melissa at a BAMQG meeting. She had the quilt and I offered to send it to Susan for her. Susan received it and loved it. How could she not?
It is such a sweet gesture and I am pleased to be a part of it.
Thank you so very much for helping us deliver this quilt. It truly could not have happened without your help. This community amazes me every day.
It was my pleasure! I am glad I could help.
I know this quilt is very much appreciated! Thank you for helping to get it to her. 🙂
It was such a sweet gesture that I couldn’t say no! Not that I would have anyway. Gorgeous quilt as well!
Things like this do make us all feel connected–and quilters show their care and concern through fabric! I appreciate so much what Melissa, Shanna, and Jenna made for Susan and appreciate that you became a part of it as well. What a wonderful thing!
Another reason to get more quiltmakers in our fold – so they can also do good with fabric!!!
