Pursuit of Happiness
I like not to make my New Year's resolutions too specific--that way I can usually acheive them! This incredible quilt block in Kankakee, Illinois seems like a good theme for a new year--Pursuit of Happiness. That's an attainable goal, isn't it? My resolution for 2011--to pursue happiness! And yes, I do think that sometimes it must be sought and not taken for granted. Another great block by the Kankakee home school students. For more about their exemplary barn quilt program, visit http://web.extension.illinois.edu/kankakee/barn/index.html 2011--As my work on this project slows down, it's time to pursue something new that will add joy to my life. It shall be interesting. Happy New Year to one and all!
I am SO enjoying this series
