Weekly Giveaway #29
Hi again, This week, I'm happy to give away a copy of
Quilting for Peace
, a marvelous book from
STC Craft. (You might remember that I wrote about it
here.)
This is a beautiful book – yet again, STC Craft has delivered a project that melds artful photography and great projects with well-written instructions. In addition, this book tells the stories of dozens of quilters (individuals and groups) who quilt for good causes – from animal shelters to children in need to adult victims of violence, war or natural disasters. The stories are touching and the projects are inspiring – they're part of what inspired a few of us here at
Canadian Living to put our heads together and start a quilt for
Project Linus Canada (more on that as it develops).
In conjunction with the publication of the book, STC Craft has organized a
Quilting for Peace campaign. I think this is a wonderful idea – even though we live in a world where problems can seem so overwhelming, it's the little actions (even as small as a tiny quilting stitch) that can make the biggest difference in people's lives.
