A few years back, a friend had cancer and was taking treatments everyday of the week. Some of the ladies where we lived got together and made her a quilt to take with her. The quilt was made in blocks that where envelopes, they wrote notes/letters to her every week and put them in their block. I have never seen one like it, but would like to make one. Any help out there.
