May you never tire of my "Be A Good Human" Days.
I spent all day on Wednesday, April Fool's Day, working with wonderful women and children. We channeled our inner kindergartner and colored file folder games for children in third world countries.
The file folder games will go to orphanages and schools.
I just love these beautiful women and their daughters!!
It's so fun to get together and create!
Of course we needed a few quilts to tie.
Always need quilts to tie.
Everyone needs to be warm.
My Marsha loves her tack remover/putter inner. 
And what is that white holey thing hanging down?
I'm so glad you asked. 
It's a brilliant hole template. We have to have our ties every 3"-4" so we just plop that template on top and then tie right in the holey space and we don't have to mark the top or guess and figure out a pattern. Are you with me??? Do you care?? Let me tell you in the tying quilt world.....it's genius!!

Are they not adorable??
Are they not adorable?? These beautiful 9 and 10 year old sisters hunkered down on these sewing machines and helped make school bags.
Future quilters!!
Right around the corner!!
It was another rocktastic! day.
We got to talk about how important education is and what a blessing in our lives to have wonderful, warm, colorful schools to attend with books and teachers and resources galore.
We hope these file folder games will bring joy and enlightenment to children throughout the world.
What a great way to spend the day and looks like you got so much done! Nice to see the moms and daughters working side by side. :D

ReplyDeleteThose days are addictive1 My school kids have gotten hooked making things for "other kids". We have become a "bootie factory" as well as school bags and a stuffed toy. You are a great inspiration!
