What a wonderful concept for a quilt , quilting connections! The message is so relevant since so many people are so absorbed in their own orbits, I wonder if people remember there is a world out there and not to miss it. Congratulations on such a timely and unique message! I hope the message spreads and spreads! Greet people, look at them, don't isolate yourself!

This is an eye-opener! Reminds me to make better eye contact in my community and the exhibit is awesome. A wonderful, inspiring challenge- quilting and day to day living in the world.

I love this display and what it stands for. I cannot agree with you more. I look people in the eye and say hello whether I know them or not and many times this makes them smile, so there is sunshine in this world.

Love this. Now I want to make one of my newest grandson who has the most striking beautiful blue eyes.
