    While looking for quilting programs on Public Broadcasting stations, I found this wonderful program from 1998. Get comfortable with your sewing basket or snacks, it's an hour without commercials. There are some tear jerker stories, and some warm fuzzy feelings shared in this documentary of men and women quilters, even children. The stories go from slave days to modern times. As I watched it, I thought about this wonderful family board of like minded, but different individuals. I pictured these wonderful people as the faces and voices behind the avatars, even though Y'all aren't from Georgia... Enjoy
