Quilting In a Word
I’m just loving these weekly questions. Did you all happen to notice the abundance of Bonnie Hunter fans? They really came through for her, huh!? Although, with 138 comments (how AWESOME) and the majority being for her, our winner this week chose Judy Niemeyer as her favorite designer. It is so hard to chose just one, isn’t it? Some mentioned a couple! Well, lets all give a hearty Congratulations to our winner for this week:
Marsha Warren
Congratulations, Marsha!
You ready for this week’s Quilty Question?
Here ya go: Describe in ONE word what quilting means to you.
Hope you all have a wonderful week! Please don’t be shy and stop by to say”hi!” often and don’t forget to leave your answer for this week’s Quilty Question for your chance to win a $25 Stitchin’ Heaven Gift Card, just like Marsha! Also, we just had our after market party at the store on Saturday, so this week all the cool finds will be on the Hotflash! which is our weekly newsletter, so if you aren’t already signed up…what are you waiting for?! As, always, if you need anything you can call or email me nichole@stitchinheaven.com .

Quilting is my out, my relaxation, my way of leaving life and getting my mind on something creative instead of worry. It is the only activity that I like to do creatively. I have tried kniting, crocheting, needlepoint and sewing clothes, etc, and did not care for them. Quilting is my true passion and I am thankful that I have found something that satifies me so.

One word would be “WARMTH” because I feel a great warmth working on them with friends, and/ or family, warmth in completing one and giving it to someone special or to a charity and the warmth that they provide both emotionally and physically after they are completed.

When we were little and in school, we always looked forward to recess. It was so nice to get a break from studies. Well, quilting gives me a break from housework and life’s routines.

Breath
Quilting is the breath of my heart to the fiber of the fabric, to the needle and the thread. Quilting is lifegiving to my spirit in every event of my life. God has given me the talent to be creative, I will honor that with my breath.
God Bless

Due to my mother having Lou Gehrig’s Disease, she no longer can quilt, and she got me started on quilting. Hard to put this in just one word! I think I’d go with the word “emotional”, because of all the various emotions each one of us feels when quilting!
