It's pre dawn, still dark and everything is quiet, so with little distraction I can now put down in words why I was unable to express myself last night.
There are times in your life where you begin on a journey and you never know where it will end.
A commitment to giving my name, time and energy to this community here in New Mexico last year has had a deep affect on me and I'm thrilled with the results.
The fabulous organizing group held a pot luck tea last night. We shared ideas and congratulatory dialogue and delicious green chili.....
The final wrap up.... goodness, $10,000 was generated, I could hardly believe it.... and we hope it will ensure an annual event to continue the idea that -
"Quilting can make a difference - just for the asking."
The ladies made me a visual diary with photos and words, notes from the participants, organizers and bank staff.... and I will treasure it for ever.
They know me well.... I also received a fabulous bright orange hand bag and a new journal to take on my travels. Thank you, thank you, Thank you.
For once in my life......I was speechless...!!!!!!
