Emma Stories

I think it was at the Spring Tahoe meet that I started an oriental quilt. It was going pretty well till I got to the binding. It had an uneven lower border with four inner corners [for lack of a better word]. I could not figure out how to do the binding in those inn
er corners plus due to arthritis my fingers are numb. Several months later at a guild meeting I was sitting next to you Emma, and was asking you about it. Before I finished and before I even mentioned my numb fingers you said, "I'll do it for you".and you did,you Angel. I won a second prize ribbon on it. On the critique the only positive remark they made was really for you. They said the binding wasbeautfully done. Thats not all,Emma. I tried to enter it in the State Fair. It wasn' accepted ,but, on the critique the only positive thing they said was, you guessed, THE BINDING IS BEAUTFULLY DONE  Thanks Emma
Love, Barbara Ree

What is Your Emma Story?

This blog is a chance to remember and honor Emma by bringing us together in a way that can only be done through a medium like the internet. We love her, we will miss her, but she's here for a short time still, and we want to smile and cry and laugh together with her as much as possible while we can.

Emma has touched a monumental number of lives through her work as a mother, grandmother, friend, teacher, artist, and to Ted as a dear wife. There are countless stories that have already been told many times, and there are many others that we're going to learn for the first time as we read them here.

PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS, STORIES AND PICTURES!!!

Not only will we be able to laugh and smile together, even after Emma has passed, but we will be sharing this blog with Emma. If you have a story, long or short, silly or sad, pensive or outrageous, please take some time and share it with us and Emma.

This is such a dear time for all of us. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and prayers.
