I couldn't help but notice the Raybestos t-shirt. My husband designed Raybestos brake parts for over 20 years. Fun T-shirt.

I live in Stratford, CT where the Raybestos plant used to be. My aunt worked there and was a catcher for the Brakettes for many years. My daughter, who this is for, also played softball in rec leagues and in high school and was also a catcher. My aunt, Lorraine "Chic" Meehan was so proud of the fact that my daughter was taking after her!

Priceless. Super quilt. I do have to say that I think that the best thing is the label. No question about it she will have this quilt for always. BrendaK
