eQuilter’s Charity Story

We finally have the Australian Patchwork and Quilting issue in stock, with a lovely article about eQuilter’s charity work for Mission of Love and other organizations around the world.

A special thanks to Stephanie Squadrito and APQ staff for featuring this story about our efforts to help others in need.

The timing could not be better! – since I will be meeting with Engineers Without Borders at NASA in Houston November 2-4, (about a new project in Kenya) and also because I am traveling with Kathy Price and her team of volunteer Mission of Love surgeons to Guatemala Nov 27-Dec 1, to support and photograph cleft palate/lip surgeries.

Sometimes I get so busy that I don’t have time to be creative, so I sign up for quilt challenges to make sure I am always working on something no matter how busy I am with travel, etc. This last year I have been very busy as a parent activist regarding the toxic school that made Sophie sick. We pulled her out in February but other kids are still sick, so I continue to push for transparency on that issue. It is time-consuming!

However I did manage to make a quilt for the National Park exhibit which will premier at the Houston Quilt Festival. (I did the Bobcat in Arches National Park) I am also part of the Fly Me To The Moon challenge.

So I am busy, but not too busy to quilt and make art! How about you?

Right now our family is running out the door to a wedding. Our kids’ music teachers of 8 years, are getting married today at Chautauqua, which is where Paul and I got married 20+ years ago. It is another gorgeous sunny day here in Boulder Colorado – a perfect day for a wedding!
