Re: Project from the heart.....' Hearts Around The World'
Susanna, Thanks for doing such a wonderfully special thing that we can participate in for El. She has been such an inspiration for all of us for so many years.
Count me in. carol/kittyquilt
For some still confused people about the prayer quilt, like I was when I first heard it requested for the California fire victims, here's a thought that helped me sort it in my mind (of course with help for El's Angels) Think of it as a one-block wall hanging, pieced top, batting, backing, binding, quilted by hand, machine, tied, whatever you want and however you want. That's why the size or color isn't specified. You may have a favorite block that you don't think is quite big enough, add a border or two.
Hope this helps, I know it did me. carol/kittyquilt

Maybe like one of the "Postcards" that one of the swaps is doing. I've wanted to try one of those, this might be the perfect time.
Thanks Susanna!
Thanks Susanna!
Have Fun,

Susanna, mine went in the mail today. It's in a mailing tube and I'm a little concerned that it will get lost. If you havn't gotten it by Monday please let me know and I'll send another.
