    A story that represents the love they had for you and each other. I wonder if the colors tell a story of the arctic - blues for the ocean and changing emotions, white for the skies and of hope and faith, greys for cloudy days and missing family.

    I'm all teary now.

    A true gift from the heart.

    This quilt should be treasured, always, as an heirloom. What a beautiful story.

    my sentiments exactly. It is very, very pretty. What dedication on their part, to the quilt, and to you. You must be a special friend to them, also.
    They also must have a very good marriage, to be off in the Artic, and do a project like this together. I am so impressed and touched, by the whole thing! :D
