Patsy's table runner

This is a fabulous story of giving.  Patsy is one of the First Lutheran Quilters.  She and Emily bind all the quilts that we make.  We put it in the bulletin that we need fabrics donated and we get all  kinds.  Well, Patsy brought in squares that she had worked on over the years.  They are call UFO's -- Unfinished projects.   Isn't that a strange name.  Anyway amongst her squares were three dresden plates.  They were made from 1930's fabrics. These fabrics were from flour sacks and she had hand stitched them.  Did I mention that she is over 80.  I told her that she could donate the others, but not the plates.  I would take the plates home and make her a table runner for her table.  So I did.    The day that she got it she was so happy.  She just beamed.  She put it right on her table and there it is to stay.
