The Most Inspiring Quilter


Wanda Long of Franklin, Indiana, was the quilter all of us want to be when we grow up. At 88 years old, Wanda was happy to live alone, surrounded by her many quilts and getting out of the house often to volunteer at the food pantry. “My theory is everyone should have a hobby,” she said, “because one of these days you’re not going to be working and you need something to occupy your time.” Watch the video at the link below for your quilting inspiration.

I totally agree with Wanda. I have watched both my MIL and SIL be so lonely when there husbands passed with nothing to focus on during the grieving periods. I never want to be that way.
