This is my small donation quilt for the 2019 SAQA Benefit Auction. My original design was inspired by a black & white drawing of Jesus Christ carrying His cross. At first, this image may look like an "X" – but if you turn the image on point, you can clearly see the cross. I hope when people look at this quilt, they too will see the cross and reflect on all that it represents.
I was shocked and saddened to learn today that Nancy Zieman ( Sewing With Nancy ) had passed away after a long, courageous battle with cancer. I feel like I have lost a close, personal friend. Nancy was a wonderful sewing teacher who will be greatly missed by thousands of loyal fans who watched her TV show, Sewing With Nancy, since 1982. Thankfully, you can still see episodes on PBS stations and on YouTube. Nancy was an inspiration to us all and will be greatly missed.
