Here's a personal interest story that I hope you enjoy!

Realizing my dream to visit the 140 year old house that I was born in came with a few magnificent surprises. My husband and I recently took a trip to the small town in Scotland where I was born. Coming upon the house I saw that it had a red door just like my house. As red is my favorite color I was just delighted. What other wonderful surprises did this 140 year old house hold? 

Much to my surprise as I crossed the threshold there was a wonderful tiled quilt on the vestibule floor. At the very moment I saw it, I knew that it would be my next quilting project. Maybe seeing this beautiful quilt on the floor as a child in some small way put me on the path to becoming a quilter. I'd like to think so. It gives me such a warm feeling to think about the house and the finished quilt that I've sent to it's owners. They have my quilt hanging in the hallway adjacent to the original quilt. It is my small way of thanking them for allowing me to come home again. I feel like the circle is complete.
