A.A. Milne said “How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” I have been privileged to be part of this amazing group of artists since late 2020. We are connected through our love of cloth and making and sharing our passion for art. We connect with each other at conferences, exhibits, at the fabric store or in a class, or even on vacation. We connect with each other over prompts and through conversations about those prompts. Michael Elliott said, “Never underestimate the power of connecting with others – it holds within it, the power to change the world.” One quilt at a time, Cloth in Common members are changing the world by connecting with each other across borders and language and culture. Until this goodbye becomes a hello, warm wishes to all.
