Pierogi days are family days

Description
Participants of the We the People Community Quilt project were asked to answer a number of questions regarding their quilt square.
1. What does your square represent? My square represents our Polish heritage. I chose the pierogi symbol because it brings the family together. The color red I used is a symbol of Polish pride.
2. Why did you choose these symbols? Making Pierogis are a family tradition in our home. We get together before Easter and before Christmas to make at least 20 dozen to have for our holiday dinners and to gift some to friends. At least 6 to 8 people help the process. From my 2 year old granddaughter to the 68 year old grandpa! Fun is had by all.
3. What do you hope viewers notice or feel? Polish pride
