Default daughter's healing block

My daughter lost her grandpa this year, to help her with her grieving process we decided to make a quilt with blocks that remind her of her grandpa. He loved coffee and anything sweet. We still have several blocks to add, hopefully we'll get it done soon.

Default healing process

Here are a few more of our healing blocks. She has really enjoyed putting these blocks together.

Great blocks! I lost my Grandpa that I adored at about the same age. It was my first experience with sorrow and it took me a long time to recover. (((Hugs)))

Can't wait to see it all together. I am sure that she will treasure it forever.

What a great gift you are giving her. Won't it be nice to snuggle under the quilt and remember all the special times with her grandpa!
