    My favorite part was when Jenny came out of Strings & Story, Ron was waiting, they joined hands and walked off into the sunset together. I think Ron and Jenny’s story is such a sweet one, it’s obvious he fully supports Jenny. Love this couple ❤. Also enjoyed seeing this quilt shop, I’m liking this new series.

    I love this series and look forward to see many more with Jenny and Ron as ambassadors, introducing us to other quilt shop owners and those quilters we learn from on RUclips. These are people many of us will never get to physically visit. Duluth, GA and String and Story will be on my dream trip that I would like to take one day. My heart melted when Jenny walked out of the shop and Ron was waiting for her, taking her hand and walking into the night together. Love, love, love this couple.

    I couldn't love this more, for several reasons. Jenny taking the opportunity to "spotlight" quilt shops, introducing us all to so many wonderful people and aspects of quilting. Hollyanne's enthusiasm and willingness to teach is contagious. I just moved away from the Atlanta area and really regret not stopping by String & Story. Congratulations to String & Story on such a fun blessing for your shop and your "Rockstars". Thank you to Jenny and Missouri Star for showcasing these shops. Can't wait for the next video!

    In these days of turmoil and strife, these Quilters are taking bits of love and fabrics and threads and attempting to piece this world back together. The gift of sharing these handmade items touches the hearts of the receiver, every time they use the gift.... that joy and love that it was sewn with is felt all over again. I personally love to make and give these items and appreciate when I receive one as well. It is a real treasure. Thank God For All The Quilters and The Love They Create and Share!
