BLISS - I have a chronic illness and can't do many things, but making quilts is something I CAN do. This brings me joy! I'm able to use my creativity, my sewing skills, and give to others.
Same. I’ve become very disabled through my chronic illness and can do so little anymore. Quilting is keeping me sane and helping me feel productive, useful and creative.
I hope you continue to find joy through your quilting journey and your health journey.
I'll be praying for you both, @pennycatherine and @a story book finish.

BLISS...I get joy from quilting on my new longarm. Recently I was able to donate several quilts to a local benefit for ALS. My youngest daughter has a friend that was diagnosed recently and it made me feel good to be able to help out, even in a small way.
BLISS, I feel very grateful that I was able to spend and enjoy my mommas lasts days and moments. Life has been so hard for me with so many deaths back to back but my faith has helped me pull through and my understanding as to why I was able to beat my cancer and be here for the other episodes the lord had in place. Momma loved the pattern and colors and I would love to make it in her memory
Bliss is the laughter of grand children.
Bliss is having a peaceful day that I can spend sewing, spending time with my husband and dog, and doing things I enjoy.
Bliss- what another wonderful show ladies. Love the podcast episodes. They are longer and I get to spend more time with you all! Have a great day and happy sewing ladies and happy golfing Billy 🥰😘
Bliss is the gift of giving. I have been quilting for 30-plus years and have only recently kept a couple quilts for myself. A happy heart comes from the joy of giving. Loved ones, charity, veterans, and the list goes on and on. I once gave a quilt to a little guy who now has passed, but his family sent me a letter saying how much it meant to them knowing someone cared. The little guy took the quilt to all his appointments and hospital stays. So yes, how can it get any better than that.
Bliss is a full day of quilting with NO ripping out mistakes!
Bliss. Joy is my grandchildren and watching my kids being such good parents.
Bliss is having my dog in my sewing room with me as I spend my day fondling fabric, sorting fabric, rearranging fabric, buying fabric, cutting fabric and sewing fabric! While I watch my favorite TH-cam channels or listen to a good audiobook. Ahh, that’s bliss for me❤️
Bliss - my daughter brings me the most joy!! She's going to be 20 in a few months and I still love Seether all the time and doing things with her!! After her my cats bring me joy!! I have 3 , Schrodinger, Nova, and Blue. My sewing brings me joy because I'm on disability and it helps keep me busy without causing me a great deal of pain. Love your podcast!! And everything you share!! ❤❤
Bliss is unconditional love, both giving and receiving, time spent with family, sunny days, baby laughs, and rainy day naps.
Bliss. Quilting and giving away quilts brings me so much joy!
Bliss. I get joy from making quilts, pillows or table runners for my sister-in-law because she is always so appreciative.
Bliss I love playing thread chicken. The bobbin always has more thread on it than I think. It’s when I’m not paying attention that I run out of thread. Love your podcasts!
Bliss- My 8 grandchildren bring me the greatest joy this side of heaven! Their laughter, giggles, smiles and hugs just melt my heart.❤️ Love your videos, please keep them coming.
Bliss is being able to create something beautiful each and everyday while following along with so many wonderful tutorials and blogs you publish. You (all three) are very much appreciated.

Bliss is that feeling when you finish a beautiful quilt, gift it and see the smile on the recipients face
Bliss, my sewing room is "My Happy Place." 😊 My cat Jax loves when I go in there so we can have quiet together time. Lately, he loves to curl up on the edges of the quilt I'm hand quilting for my mother's 80th birthday. It's cozy and warm with a pink flannel backing.
Bliss is a quilting retreat with friends where we can enjoy a shared love of quilting, laugh, eat and enjoy our time together,
BLISS such joy at sewing with friends.
Bliss. What gives me joy in quilting is giving a quilt and seeing the happiness it brings.

BLISS - what brings me joy in quilting is ALL OF IT!!!! I love to cut material. I love to put the Alphabitties on the pieces as I cut them. I love to watch TV as I get some of the piecing set up for sewing the next morning. I love to press the work and put it under the clappers to flatten the work. I love sizing up the Flying Geese and then looking at them and how great they look with my specialty ruler. And I just love it when the quilt is done and I can enjoy the work! I LOVE IT ALL!!!!

Bliss: Basting on the floor and my 2 year old can't help but to sit in the middle and scrunch the quilt around himself. Every quilt gets a Simon hug.
Bliss is my sister recovering from a head on accident the end of February 2023, fracturing her back and neck and today walking 7000 steps. A true miracle. During her recovery I was only able to sew mindless scrap blocks but found I really enjoyed making them. Just grabbing a fabric square with no thought to color and just sewing it was so relaxing and enjoyable .

BLISS! What brings my heart the most joy is donating my time at an assisted living center. Each week I try to take two seniors with me to Sunday church service. I’m currently working on 4 more quilts to gift to 4 people that live there. I’m slowly but surely trying to make sure each and every senior that lives there has a lap quilt to help keep them warm! My boys are all grown and have families of their own. I’m an empty nester and what I enjoy the most is my grand daughter, my dogs, making quilts, and giving back to the community. My late father was in the retirement community that I donate my time at, and I was shocked to how many elderly people either don’t have family or their family doesn’t visit them. It’s actually very sad. Thank you for sharing with us. I always listen to your podcast when I’m in my sewing room sewing. It’s very relaxing to listen to the 3 of you talk. I hope you all have a beautiful day.
Bliss is getting to enjoy each new day and have quilting be a part of it.
BLISS is sewing with no deadlines! I love to just sit in my sewing room and love the sound of the sewing machine!
Bliss - I really enjoy seeing friends & family members wrapped up in a quilt I’ve made while they watch tv, read a book, sleep, etc. It’s like I’m giving them hugs from afar.
Bliss-beginning and ending each and every day with a thankful heart.
BLISS is how I feel when I have a day off and can quilt all day!
Bliss- my bliss is a cool morning with a fresh cup of coffee and my quilt planner. I love everything about the wildflowers growing in the fields all around me and draw inspiration from them.
