I've just released the Summer 2020 issue of Crazy Quilt Quarterly magazine. Under the current circumstances we're all dealing with, I think everyone needs something pretty to look at!
Letter From The Editor:
It’s been a rough Spring. The horrible virus has taken its toll around the world in so many unimaginable
ways.
There is however, one thing that it cannot touch and that’s our
creativity. In times like this, our human spirit reaches out to not
only help others, but to help ourselves as well.
Creativity gives
us an outlet to express our emotions. The repetitive nature of
stitching helps to quiet our minds. The finished project gives us a
sense of completing something of value. And everyone has something of
value to contibute to our world.
Someone once told me, in
reference to how cars work, there are no independent systems. I think
it has become evident that there is no job that isn’t important. We all
work together whether we see it or not. There is no hobby that isn’t
necessary, if only to the person doing it. And there is no living
creature on this planet that doesn’t serve a purpose, whatever that
purpose may be.
At the time of this writing, it’s Holy Week. I pray that by the time this reaches you, that our new
normal is even better than our old one. Peace be with all of you!
