My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to
make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of
snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep
warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids.
Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful.
Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

Happy Thanksgiving
I am thankful for my husband and my kids and my job, friends, and the creative spirit that made us and makes us interesting!
I am not cooking, not overeating and I am going to pray for peace and love and healing for the world which surely needs it.
And what about you? What will you be thankful for and what will be in your prayers today?
i am thankful for my husband, my children, my Dad, my family, friends and my country.
