    Here's the "Friend" quilt I made for the woman whose best friend was murdered.

    Thank you to those here who left me posts on how to say (feminine version) of the word "Friend" in different languages. I hand drew them in different colors.

    The background is a watercolor black and the back is black fleece with peace signs. I used them both to say that "even is our darkest hours, our friends' love is always there and brings us peace."


    The close-ups are: English, Hebrew and Thai
