    "How far can a needle carry you?" Wow, that's inspiring. This is a lovely video and I've always been interested in the AIDS quilt project. Heart breaking and heart warming at the same time.

    I love how it's not just art it's a community and a family. So many people coming together to make and learn art.

    I love the quilting ladies, I made a quilt top in the 70s with my great grandmother. It’s always in my heart spending time with her.❤️

    There's a wonderful little book The Quilt by a man who spent summers on the Iron Range in northern Minnesota with his grandmother as a child. Farms were far apart and towns farther, so when a baby was due, women from throughout the area would gather to help with the birthing. They'd work on a quilt with pieces cut from clothing of people who had died and tell stories of each person represented there, for remembrance.

    I Enjoyed the quilting part of this because it reminded me of my grandmother. When I was really young I remember her piecing small pieces of material together to make a quilt top. As the woman said you had to make quilts to keep the children warm.

    Great video! I enjoyed seeing the different crafts especially pottery and quilting! This video inspires me to start back painting which is something I use to do. Painting was very therapeutic for me.

      @@normathomas8276 I'd say deeper than ignorance - arrogance; the base of which is fear, fear, and perhaps jealousy of artistry, beauty and community.

    I especially enjoyed the quilting part, and the last lady's story. The only thing I think was a little strange was how few people of color go to Penland; not sure if that if for financial reasons or what, but it struck me as odd.
