I’ve really enjoyed working with these prints: Roses on the
Vine, designed by Marti Michell for Maywood Studios. Whenever I’ve shared a
photo of one of the blocks I’ve made with them here or on Facebook, they’ve
attracted lots of positive attention. For instance, within 48 hours of posting
a photo of this particular block, it was shared two dozen times, “liked” 800
times, and received seventy nice compliments, in several different languages. Later
on this week, this block and forty-one of its friends will become part of a
quilt top on its way to the volunteer quilters at Intermountain Medical Center.
Then sometime next year the finished quilt will be given to a hospital
employee, a volunteer, or someone at the Heritage Center. A
friend once asked if I regret giving so many quilts away. I don't. I like to take a cue
from the autumn leaves: letting go can be a beautiful thing.
