So we will spend Mothers Day visiting her there, and\nremembering those traditions. <br><br>\nLast summer Sophie and I went on a music tour in Sweden, and we realized that\nmany of our family traditions that came down through my grandmother, were\nactually Swedish traditions! (Sophie was named after my Swedish\ngreat-grandmother who immigrated to the US.) <br><br>\nMy 2 grandmothers and my great aunt were responsible for my interest in sewing,\nembroidery and painting, as a young girl. Being artistic and musical was a\ngiven in our family, and I was raised to think of myself as an artist and\nmusician. Now that all 3 of our kids have pursued some kind of job or career\nrelated to music, I have to smile, knowing all the music and creativity that\ncame down from all the grandparents. Paul&#8217;s father played trumpet, and his\nmother was a painter. When he was a kid, his mom and sister would throw him in\nthe back of the car and they would all go fabric shopping. So when Paul and I\nmet, and later when we dreamed up this business, we spoke the same language. <br><br>\nThe gift of creative expression that we pass on to others &#8211; whether it is our\nstudents, our children or grandchildren, is a gift that keeps on giving. We may\nnever know how far our gift extends into the future branches of our family\ntree, but our creative presence will always be woven into the history of the\nfamily story. <br><br>\nFrom our family to yours, and from all of our eQuilter staff, we wish you a\nbeautiful Mothers Day full of the creative gifts of the heart. <br><br>\nsharing your Passion for Fabric&#8230; <br>\nLuana and Paul <br><br><\/p>\n<strong>Share Post:<\/strong><br><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5374&#038;t=Happy%20Mothers%20Day&#038;s=100&#038;p&#091;url&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5374&#038;p&#091;images&#093;&#091;0&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F05%2FNCSVALMU_MD.jpg&#038;p&#091;title&#093;=Happy%20Mothers%20Day\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5374&#038;text=Hey%20check%20this%20out\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-pinterest nolightbox\" data-provider=\"pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Pin it with Pinterest\" href=\"https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5374&#038;media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F05%2FNCSVALMU_MD.jpg&#038;description=Happy%20Mothers%20Day\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"pinterest\" title=\"Pin it with Pinterest\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/pinterest.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-linkedin nolightbox\" data-provider=\"linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5374&#038;title=Happy%20Mothers%20Day\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"linkedin\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/linkedin.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for sharing our fabric service with your fellow Fabriholics!
