Projects

OK, so we've all got them. If not physically, we have ideas and visions that will perhaps someday become a reality.

Tell us about your projects ... what are you working on?
What are you planning?
And if you really don't have anything visualized yet, tell us what you would like to be working on!

I see a lot of people have viewed this thread but no one has ventured forth to share.

As the fearless leader, I will post first.

I'm attaching some pics of a quilt top I finished this winter and will be machine quilting in April. I am making it for a dear friend who will be walking her 5th Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. I admire her commitment and dedication. For the last two years I have met with her to walk part of this and share the experience with her. I have to say that it is one of the most powerful and inspiring experiences I have ever had - being out there with these amazing women (and men with heart) who have committed their time, their hearts and their bodies to doing this challenging and important walk. If you are looking for a challenge, want to support this cause, or want to be inspired by humanity, I highly recommend you try this. It is a humbling and inspiring experience.

Last year a woman told me about someone who had made a quilt and raffled it off as part of her fundraising, to try to increase the amount of money she could raise. I thought, what a great idea! And so I was inspired to make one for my friend and contribute some of my time and heart to support her efforts and help her to raise money for this important cause.

In addition to finishing this project, I'm also hoping to make two baby quilts for some friends who are expecting. So I am planning to be busy this spring.

Now it's someone else's turn to share. Don't be shy!
