Just finished this 5x7 crazy quilt collage. It has a charming quote, “Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.” How true!!
What a wonderful sentiment... love the piece very much too! Hummm... many, many of those moments in my life, but I can think of the time I saw hundreds of dolphins frolicking in Malibu... They just came out of no where and they were so much fun to watch. Now that took my breath away!
I have to give this Breath Taking Moment some thought...being surrounded by WORK at the moment...I can't think my way thru the mess to recall anything wonderful at the moment.
But I love having something to chew on like this while I tackle the pile !Thanks.
This is my most favorite quote. My breathtaking moment.... when my children were born... and a very simple low key one... a string quartet concert in my school's gym. They were sitting on folding chairs playing for 120 kindergarten - sixth graders...simply took my breath away...and brought tears to my eyes...it was difficult for me to keep my composure.
From Joy: Another breathtaking crazy quilt!! It is beautiful as all your handwork is. Did you crochet the little circles near the top and bottom? Hope your back is ready for a weekend of Harley riding and you have wonderful weather.
You don't live near the wildfire in Utah that I saw on the news, do you.

The quote is great, Cat. It makes you stop and think. And sunrises have always taken my breath away. The gift of a new day, new hope, new beginnings.
