Gratitude Quilt

I got an invitation from Laura: If you haven't already, I do hope you'll send me something for the gratitude quilt this year. No actual quilting involved… just words of gratitude from your heart, in your native language is fine.

Here´s my contribution!

Så mange hjerter, det varmer langt inn i sjelen. Vi har så mye å være takknemlige for, vi som bor i frie land der alle betyr like mye, der ingen naturkatastrofer rammer oss.. og vi får nok mat hver dag, har en deilig seng å sove i og dem vi er glade i, er rundt oss.

Til orientering har Laura 46 bilder av hjerter som naturen sjøl har forma slik som f.eks. steinen jeg har hatt bilde av, på bloggen sin.

Several years ago when I started my job as a teacher for patients suffering from mental deceases, I gave lessons in patch work. 
The students quilted, and we had a socializing that meant a lot to each of us.
This project was inspired of artwork made by the Austrian painter Hundertwasser who had his "glansdager" in the beginning of the eighties.

I have my pieces of ordinary quitting stored, so next year I will have the works packed up from their boxes place in the attic and then present a west I made to wear for Christmas.
