Share the Warmth

One of the quilt blogs that I read regularly
is
Victoria Findlay Wolfe whose blog is
Victoria has put a call out for donation quilts.  
They are for 
homeless families in NYC.

Have you felt the coolness of fall?
I have.
I've even pulled the quilt up from the bottom of the bed last night.
It felt good.

Maybe I could send a couple of quilts
to the Basics Quilt Drive and help out.

I chose two quilts that met the requirements and
will send them off to some kiddos that might
like to enjoy the warmth of a homemade quilt.
This quilt was made quite a while ago, but never used.
"Bunny Hop"
It's a Debbie Mumm pattern.
And I think some little person will like it.

This flannel quilt was also made a while ago. 
 "Prairie Point Pinwheels"
Maybe I was 
saving it for just the right occasion.

I've packed them both in a box and have them
ready to send.

Look around your quilt collection 
and check out Victoria's blog for more information.
It will warm my heart 
knowing some else will be warm because of me.
"Share the warmth"

Colorful Colorado

It would be hard to imagine seeing only this.

Rather than this

Or this:

When this is how it really looks.

Color surrounds us.
It evokes emotion, how we react,  respond, and basically
how we feel.

Last week when I was traveling, we stayed at the
Gateway Canyon Resort
in Gateway, Colorado on the western slope.

 It was a wonderful splurge and


 we were surrounded by the beautiful colors of the southwest.



Even the lizards are colorful.

It really doesn't matter where you live,
just open your eyes and
enjoy the colors.
It makes for a beautiful day.

Until Next Time-
