What a stunning piece of work! I used to quilt, and can see the effort in this. Lovely addition to your home to remind you of the kindness of others. Beautiful!

I was a quilter once upon a time (before MS)...and I certainly appreciate "thready" beauties such as this! What a superb gift! Lucky you, dear Yakky! LOL (P.S. Kiss Daisy for me!)
