Just scraps....

How do they do that? It has always amazed me how people can take something that gets thrown away and make it into something beautiful. In our travels we have seen exhibits of throw aways that are made into creations of beauty on display for those of us who are not "artsy" to walk by and say, "How did they do that!"

Yesterday Renee and I visited a quilt museum in Lancaster that just amazed me. These pictures don't do the quilts justice but at least give an idea. Think about it. Amish women don't shop in the New York garment district for the latest in fabrics. These are considered scraps, just little pieces that are considered throw aways. I wish I had the money to purchase one of these treasures! Just beautiful!
