Doesn't it warm your saddened heart when you get so many offers to help in more ways than just the piecing part? That helps me deal with the disbelief and horror and sadness. Wish I could have made it up there to the show; glad you had such a great time. Also wish I was in Montreal this weekend!! Miss that beautiful old city, and on La FĂȘte Nationale aka Saint-Jean-Baptiste! Bet you're having a blast there too!Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9022341937749717549.post-64841921550327790332016-06-25T06:12:05.306-07:002016-06-25T06:12:05.306-07:00Hey Lisa - I'm doing the Rainbow Rose quilt a ...Hey Lisa - I'm doing the Rainbow Rose quilt a long, too. I like mine, but I don't love it. I misunderstood and made so many squares I may have to do another. It was fun, and easy, and I have SO MANY babies to make quilts for right now... I actually put the whole thing together yesterday (I realized after that we weren't supposed to, but oh well.) It's great that you're getting involved with the Hearts for Pulse. I'm so sick of it all. There's no reason to hurt other people. None. I just really don't get it AT ALL. But I do believe strongly that love wins, still. And always. The show at Toronto sounds great. Wish I could have been there.the zen quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109269989556411207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9022341937749717549.post-42647147031619633322016-06-25T01:04:07.524-07:002016-06-25T01:04:07.524-07:00You have lovely colour graduations in Rainbow Rose...You have lovely colour graduations in Rainbow Rose, it's looking great.
