I loved her book "The It's Okay If You Sit On My Quilt Book," and greatly admired her enthusiastic manner. She was a great inspiration to many timid quilters.

And your help is needed for survivors of the Black Forest fires in Colorado!
"Piecing
Partners Quilt Guild and the Colorado Springs Quilt Guild are
partnering to make, collect and distribute quilts to the Black
Forest Fire victims, who lost a total of 486 homes. We will be
collecting items through July and August. We might have to extend
the date if we don't have enough quilts by then.
We
need finished quilts, (twin to queen size). We were advised by those
who helped with last year's Waldo Canyon fire that we would
need more of the larger quilts than kid or crib size. Also, we are
looking for quilts suitable for teenagers. Donations can be mailed to:

We appreciate any help we can get from other individuals and groups. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at

Thank you,
Elaine Goodrum
