Today I will walk along the shore. Later when the day trippers have gone home and the shorebirds are feeding along the water's edge. Maybe a bird block?
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...

You'll laugh, but I didn't realize that you had already started this quilt. For some reason I thought it was just an EQ6 vision. It's going to be lovely. Do you have a California King bed to put it on? It sounds huge!
