Laurel Wreath Variation



Quilts Etc. chose this block to represent Madeleine Albright, our first female secretary of state. Madeleine and I are almost exactly the same height. We don’t always see eye to eye, but on several points we agree completely: “We should use our opinions to start discussions, not to end them.” “Women can’t do everything at the same time. We need to understand milestones in our lives come in segments.” “I do not believe that things happen accidentally; I believe you earn them.” “Women have to be active listeners and interrupters, but when you interrupt you have to know what you’re talking about.” “There’s a significant moral difference between a person who commits a violent crime and a person who tries to cross a border illegally in order to put food on the table. Such migrants may violate our laws against illicit entry, but they are trespassers, not criminals. They deserve to have their dignity respected.”
