Photo Friday "Q" for Quilts, Quakers & CRYSTALS!!!! I was at the Southern Appalachian Yearly Meeting (SAYMA). Quaker House in North Carolina had a a table with a Quilt Project to make quilt pieces in memory of Palestinian civilians killed by drone attacks. I am domestically challenged but decided to make a quilt piece nonetheless. There were about five pieces on the table with three pages filled with names. I finished one piece and noticed that there was fabric glue on the table. I decided to make a few more. I opted to do that instead of attending the business meeting. The Clerk of the Greenbrier Worship Group where I belong knew what I was up to. I complete quilt pieces for everyone on the list. I confided with our Clerk, that I REALLY didn't want any attention and preferred to keep mum about it. The manager at Quaker House requested that EVERYONE who made a quilt piece to get up and hold that piece for a photo. I glanced over at our Meeting Clerk and nodded, "OMG! No Way!" The Quaker House manager finally requested that anybody get up and hold a quilt piece for the photo shoot. What a relief, my anonymity was safe and I got to hide in the back. LOL! Quakers DO have the BEST potlucks. The William Penn House in Washington D.C. is now called "Friends Place" courtesy of Political Correctness. Thank God, Quakers don't find the Devil behind every CRYSTAL!!! I get to keep ALL of my Crystals.        Abracadabra  |

I really like the idea behind the Quilt Project - may they rest in peace. I have been to a couple of Quaker meetings over the years. A friendly and welcoming bunch - on one occasion as we sat around in a small circle in silent prayer, I was startled to hear snoring. I looked up but the others had their heads bowed and eyes closed. I couldn't believe it and my body shook as I struggled to stifle my laughter as the snoring continued. One woman caught my eye and gave a wide grin. It was a memorable moment, lol.

Very interesting collection of "Q" photos. A very nice way to pay tribute to those poor people who lost their lives in Palestine. Lovely tasty plate of food there too.

Starwomyn I didn't know Quakers were into crystals. You have an interesting display of photos for our subject starting with the letter "Q".

Drone killings are not mentioned much in the press. During the Obama administration, they carried out more drone strikes than any other president combined.
