Default Hanging quilts

I was't able to hang my quilts on the porch when they had
that event last summer. To be honest, I forgot. Yesterday
when I delivered five lap quilts for the Nursing Home a lady
asked me to follow her - she took me into the church and
all around the balcony were quilts. They had 10 quilts
hanging over the balcony railing - six were mine.
I was tickled. They were displaying the quilts that were
collected before they delivered them to the home.

Mmmmmm, Bonnie. How very special. Thank you so much for sharing your
"hanging" with us. I wish I'd been there to applaud. What a heart-warming
happening. We know in our hearts that our love/gift/quilts are hugged and
appreciated but stories like yours keep us stitching. Polly

That is so nice. I almost get goose bumps when I see my own work
hanging. Actually not true, almost any beautiful quilt. I start thinking
about the time and energy that went into it and how that person must
have enjoyed making it. Every quilt brings a smile to me.
