Quilting bee

Conrad Grebel staff, students and faculty have made a quilt to donate to the New Hamburg Mennonite Relief Sale. Quilting started today in the library. Larisa Smyk happened to drop by just as we were getting started and put in some stitches.  "Larisa also saved me from dropping an expensive piece of loaned artwork on Friday, so she is my hero." Submitted by Mandy Macfie.

The cold air and sunshine on Wednesday morning really made the campus sparkle. Many staff managed to brave the cold long enough to capture this beauty in photographs:

Submitted by Anne Fullerton, with a poetic-sounding description: "Frost on bare trees and leftover leaves - ragged and hairy up close but like sharp edges from a distance. Rainbows on windows at the grad house at lunch overlooking Porter in the sun."
