Sister Doan had told us that she would show us some quick tricks for quilting if we wanted to stay after Sister Scripture Study. It was awesome and I should have taken pictures as I was sitting right next to her. But I can remember as it was so easy.
Two contrasting squares sewn together, cut diagonally both ways. You will have four quarters of your square which you iron and pull out into four little squares. Position into a pinwheel and iron again, then cut up the pinwheel 2 inches from the center on four corners and then the fun begins! There were about five different ways she put those eight quarters. It was awesome.
I found out she is quite a celebrity in Hamilton, Missouri. Image her being here with us on a mission to Accra. I will have to find out her story and what she is doing here. I wonder if she is here for her husband, her kids sent them, or something she wants to accomplish herself.
Here is the YouTube that tells her story:
So if I come home with a new skill, you will know who I was sitting next to.
