What a blessing that he would share his story, recovery, and tenacity within this magazine. He certainly is and will continue to be an inspiration to all of us who are aging. Beautiful quilt too.

Merry Christmas and warmest wishes for a blessed New Year.

Thanks so much for sharing with us.

Thank you for sharing. Your DH is one determined guy! I'm gonna need a link to your original posting 'cause the one in the magazine isn't big enough for these old eyes. Even in miniature it looks absolutely amazing! I recently did some work with 1'4" squares and that is a mighty BIG challenge. Happy holidays. May your DH continue on his journey to full recovery. What an inspiration!
