You express things in such a beautiful way. The links you shared are terrific too. The more intensely personal aspect of improv quilting came as a surprise to me. I am so glad that you and Ann began this group! <br />I was just on Christina's blog, and thought you might like to read what she had to say. It was deeply moving.<br />http://www.afewscraps.com/2015/10/peace-uncertainty-and-beauty.html?showComment=1444436598271#c4121622907481175423Lara B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15135992633781076268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569814896996066785.post-47799292915192515342015-10-09T21:59:32.394+01:002015-10-09T21:59:32.394+01:00Great post.

You have a lovely way with words. It's interesting how you two picked up on the ideas of defining improv and expressing ourselves. Those themes have been the basis of conversations in blogs, books, guilds, and so on. Considering how ever-changing quilting is, these themes will long be a part of our conversations.Mary Marcottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569619947909529203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569814896996066785.post-38933881976915936092015-10-08T10:37:30.992+01:002015-10-08T10:37:30.992+01:00Great recap post, Kaja.

Thanks also for linking to my post, it's not always easy to express my thoughts in English accurately (it being my second language), but this just came out right...Sew of Coursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14851056498007889151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569814896996066785.post-63362537234460736832015-10-08T07:11:45.347+01:002015-10-08T07:11:45.347+01:00Stephie's ability to convey mood and feelings ...Stephie's ability to convey mood and feelings is one of the reasons I like her quilts so much. It is a special gift that can be learned. As you say, improv is a great place to practice.
