I keep sending them out into the world to be what ever they will be: cherished baby rugs, used every day rugs, stored in a cupboard rugs. I hope one day to see them again, as family members send them home for repair and to get a sense of the life they have lived and to give them the chance to continue their useful lives by giving them the loving care they require. Thankyou for your insightful and reflective stories.

It makes us stop and think about how we view things every day, and what's important. Well done on a great thought-provoking site. Janet Hi Julia,

It’s wonderful the way you are paralleling the art of quilting with the tapestry of life. It makes us stop and think about how we view things every day, and what’s important.

Well done on a great thought-provoking site.
