			<description><![CDATA[Gwen was one of my initial inspirations when I began my quilting journey in 1979. It was hard to find those who worked the entire process from designing to finishing a quilt. Her simple designs and beautiful hand quilting inspired me (a working mother) to begin this life of quilting. Gwen will be missed by all who knew and loved her.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Gwen was matter of fact about everything. She would show us how to cut and sew a curve or how to create a tiny square. Then she would say, "And that is that." I was so humbled when she chose my Singer 301 to do a demo. Still have the picture I took with my phone. She inspired me and sent me on an improv road that I am still traveling. May God bless and keep her.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I attended Gwen's Beaver Island Quilt Retreats nearly every year over a 20 year period. The first thing I remember her saying is " This is how we do it. Take from it what works for you". I knew I'd chosen the right retreat. Every quilt I started at her retreats got finished and many still hang in my home. Her spirit will live on.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Gwen and Joe came to the Icehouse in Grayling, MI in the late 80's. They taught a class about how to draw your own feather design for quilting, so that it would fit your borders. It was a very informative class and fun to boot!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I've been quilting for almost 50 years. I own several of Gwen's books and had the chance to take a 5 day workshop with her about 10 years ago. Gwen was much like her work: bright, quirky and warm. This slide show really underscores the importance of her work to the 'modern quilt' movement. Gwen will be sorely missed by the quilting community but her spirit will live on in our quilts.]]></description>
