Kaufman Quilt Guild

Greetings,

I have been struggling with what to write this month. Then, I thought I’d give Pinterest a try. Searching inspirational quotes can be a great starting place! As my memory wanes at times, I quickly clicked on “short” quotes that you can remember!

Don’t you hate it when you read something meaningful that you think, “I must share this.” Time passes, and you have no recollection of this meaningful quote. You only remember how it made you feel.

I have one for you that will surely resonate with us as quilters. Are you ready? Here it is. . .

     “Be willing to be a beginner every single morning.”

            ~Meister Eckhart

Somewhere along the way it became “ uncool” to say that you don’t know something. If you always know everything, then you miss the opportunity for growth. If you start out at the beginning, growth is guaranteed! I use technology as a lesson for me as a beginner, but that is the very attitude to learn new things. Have you ever wondered how little children who can’t even read yet can navigate an iPad like nobody’s business? They are not afraid to try something new. So, try the quote out for size, and explore being a beginner!

Stitches with blessings,

Venetia
