Spreading Happiness in 2008

Now that we are in the 2nd day of 2008, I think it is time to reflect on our goals for this year. I'm not talking about New Year's resolutions .... they are too easy to make and far easier to forget! We can all think that we'd like to lose 10 (20, 30) pounds, etc. but maybe it is time to make realistic goals that can be attained, that are actually fun and might bring happiness to someone else. Most quilt guilds do community projects, such as quilts for babies and children staying in the pediatric unit of the hospital, quilts for residents of nursing homes, Quilt Pink participation and more. If you do not belong to a quilt guild, you might approach a local medical center, nursing home or hospital and start a program yourself. The residents will be so happy to have a handmade quilt they can call their own! And the happiness you bring them will stay with you all year.


So that's it for today from the immensely snow covered Northeast!
