Today we travelled around half an hour south by train to visit a family that Paul was close to when he was in Berlin. Angelo and Cara now have four beautiful children and live in what was once a farmhouse and bakery in a small country village in the middle of a forest. Angelo's mother, Esther Miller is a master quilter who runs classes from the property and today she had a visiting expert from Holland running a class for her. so We were privileged to see a number of quilts that the Dutch woman, Ted Storm had made and that had won major prizes in the international quilting competition in Houston. Ted has been named a master quilter by the International guild of quilters.Here are a couple of photos of both Esther's and Ted's work. These are all hand stitched with incredible skill.
