I know this is being shared all over quilting blogs, but I really love this story.
I especially love the fact that he has no qualms about QUILTING. No injections of the word ART, but rather just the plain enjoyment of the process and accomplishment of quilting. In my never humble opinion, this is what quilting and quilts are all about.

Fun. I had not seen this. TY.
Sandra,
Sweet. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
Thank you for sharing this. There are more and more male quilters and I wish I could talk my husband into trying. He is so precise and enjoys creating/fixing, I know he would be very good.
maybe you could show your husband this! Then he will let you buy all you want , LOL ! ; )
It is refreshing to find anybody who is just happy to be a quilter……….. and doubly so when the person is male.

What fun! (BTW: I was Chris Hummer’s English teacher. I always knew he would be a success (though I couldn’t convince him that literature could share so much about life…oh well…) Glad to see that he nurtures creativity in his team!)
Thank you for sharing this story, I had not seen it before.
I am glad you enjoyed this story as much as I did. Oh and Boop? I think I will keep my husband in the dark as far as what is involved ($$$$) in quilting and not introduce him to it. It is better that way for ME. Plus I think he would be more interested in taking my sewing machine apart to see how it works–not good. LOL
Mary,
How fun to see a former student in a large publication like the Wall Street Journal!
