Esther's Quilt

We have 2 Middle Eastern young ladies who call us "mum and dad" and one of them loves to sew and this is a quilt which she made - she chose the fabric, the pattern and did all the cutting out and sewing of it. Both young ladies are refugees and are therefore in Australia without any other family members.  However, before she came to us, she had never sewn - not even threaded a needle to sew on a button. I think she did exceptionally well with this!
Esther's quilt has been hung at both our local exhibition and also the Statewide exhibition, which delighted her no end.
Sadly, our other adopted daughter is not the least bit interested in sewing!!!
