    This man was the scissors sharpener. I asked if I could take his picture because I loved his heavily waxed moustache and sweet smile!

    They're all exquisite but I particularly like the "Last Supper" quilt; there was an incredible amount of work and dedication put into that one; thanks for sharing all those beautiful quilts.
