    Here is a 40th anniversary quilt that I just finished for a coworker of my husbands. He called me to ask if I would make a quilt using fabrics from their kids & grandkids clothing......I am a sucker for sentimental things, so I couldn't possibly say no. AND he gathered almost all the fabrics himself & his wife doesn't know anything about it....it will be a surprise on their anniversary May31st. It really was a joy to make for him.

    That's cool I'm sure his wife is going to need lots of tissue when she see's this beauty you've created.
