November First Day of the Dead

Today is a special day. Remember those who went before you.  Dance, sing, draw, paint your face, celebrate. Your grandparents wanted you to be here. They may even have prayed for you to be here. So embrace the life you have and give thanks in a way you know they will still hear. Decorate some sugar skulls. Light a candle for those who are no longer with us and tell them a story.

I designed and made the quilt square using fabric from my stash and  gave it away, here. It will be part of a quilt that raises funds for a national domestic violence prevention program called Becky’s Fund.
