I have always heard from my friends that their parents/grandparents
often times would pass about 6 months (sometime longer) after the
death of their spouse.

But in my dads case after about 6 weeks he has decided to "give up"
his fight so he can go be with his "Annie". We all respect his DNR and
living will wishes though it is not easy facing the fact that I will be losing
my only remaining parent.

Prayers and lots of hug your way, and may your angels wrap their arms around you and help you through this time, I am so sorry!

Hi: I would like to sign up for the pin cushion swap, please.

Dear IslandDragonQuilting:

I'm so sorry to hear of your news about your Dad. My husband and I have been married 52 years (on August 20) and I can't imagine my life without him. I am praying for you and your family...
Kindly,
JoAnn

Louise - so sorry about your Dad - its hard to lose parents. I lost my Dad when I was 15 but was blessed that my Mom lived to 85. Take good care of yourself - prayers coming your way. Heather G.

OK I am asking for feedback on these, they are done out of felt. The Mushrooms were a free online pattern found here,
http://thelittlehousebythesea.wordpr...-and-tutorial/

The camper, I drew out using some various online designs as inspiration for it, but I wanted a door that opened and could be used to hold needles.

The round flowery one I drew that one out too, using others designs as inspiration. What do you think?? Hope it is OK posting these here, but I knew if anyone would give me honest feedback it would be in the pincushion swap!

I love them all, but the mushrooms are my favorites!
