Alan Titchmarsh is well known in the U.K. as the host of various TV gardening shows (Americans may remember his show Ground Force from when it broadcast on BBCAmerica). In a recent installment of his gardening column for The Telegraph, Titchmarsh wrote a mea culpa the likes of which we here in the U.S. rarely see in our papers. It seems in a previous column he included quilting, along with dominoes and crocheting bedspreads, as pursuits not as vital and important as gardening. One reader responded and defended quilting with an incandescence of sufficient luminosity to light the night sky above her patchwork quilt, and, well, you should just read the rest for what ends up being his homage to quilting. Its pretty wonderful. telegraph.co.uk/journalists/alan-titchmarsh/10789034/Alan-Titchmarsh-singing-the-praises-of-quilters.html
