Teach one, reach one

Wiz of Oz A fellow quilter and guild member asked me the other day if I was contagious – passing on the quilting bug to all my friends. Well, it certainly seems that way. I am proud to introduce my friend Angela’s amazing Wizard of Oz quilt. She picked up the fabric from the internet and the local quilt shop and had questions about how to put it all together so that the different tones and colors would work well. We had lots of fun going through my extra fat quarters to find colors and prints that played well with the theme fabric.

After that I said, Add pieces until the blocks are all the same size, very vague instructions, I know. But Angela’s an experienced seamstress and crafter and she knew just what I meant, took it and ran with it. The finished top is 66 x 90 and absolutely stunning. I don’t know yet who the lucky recipient will be.Wiz of Oz 2

Hello!



I found your review for the book “Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents” on Amazon.



I'd love to connect and collaborate with you (somehow!)



My work outlines practical and creative ideas inspired by love in the quest for wellbeing.



As a fitness coach, besides exercise and diet, I suggest daily doses of reflection on life and self-examination.



In Fit for Joy, I wrote about the paradox of two realities that don’t match: physical health and mental chaos. The idea was to start a conversation about the “true” meaning of health.



As a podcast host, I am in search of meaningful truths, ideas, and insights about mental and spiritual health that can awaken new ways of thinking, leading us toward a new way of being — Being Well."



Would you be interested in any or a combination of:



- Podcast interview: Inspired by Love in Quest for Well-Being

- Guest blogging

- Exchanging blogs

- Book review



You might have other ideas!



Much Love,

Valeria
