A New Sewl in the Fold

Ahh, I love healing arts and opening souls to the lovely work of fiber. So what began as a pick up of an art quilt, became an evening with the ancestors. Teaching someone the art of using your hands is an awesome feeling for me.

I had the pleasure of teaching someone how to quilt by the creation of a small coaster by hand. 3 hours later after a sip and loads of sharing stories.. She ended up with a finished piece. That then lead to the desire to delve deeper. So today, off we went to my favorite LQS, City Quilter. 2 hours later we had created a customized quilt kit for her to make by hand.

Love it. Another Sewl (soul) in the fold.

I also had the pleasure of finally revealing a piece I had been working on... Needless to say the new owner is ecstatic. Smiles

    Yes Chris, I coined that word after church today. Lol

    And the quilt is a friend of mine and his son. All my handy work. Smiles
