This Month’s Issue: Good News & Glimmers of Hope

We could all use some good news right about now. That’s why when I was contacted by Shari Richard about a special barn quilt she’d just hung, I couldn’t wait to share her story. What about your story? Let us know what gives you hope in these trying times. We’ll share what we can in future issues and on social media.
