CDM reception

What fun we had on Thursday evening at the Creative Discovery Museum celebrating the children, their quilts and ours. The doors were open wide, as it was Free Family Night, children were everywhere and having fun as they always do at CDM. They were learning through play and munching on reception goodies. The walls in the open area were covered in our bright art quilts that appeal to both children and adults.

I would like to thank each of our members for their fabric, time and energy on this project. You were so very gracious and eager to take part in this, our first, community project. Next I would like to thank Liza Blair and the CDM for being so open minded to our ideas. You were a joy to work with and we thank you for the opportunity.  I would like to thank  Sandi Suggs for pairing GreatFul Threads with  CDM. Only Sandi would have known what a good pair the two organizations would make. Last but not least, thanks  to Maddie Kertay and Spool for providing the batting for the children's quilts.

What an amazing week this was for quilters and the city of Chattanooga. How lucky we are to live in a city that embraces our passion. As good as this is, I have a feeling it's only going to get better.  I hope you look forward to the future as much as I do.
