The quilt is beautiful! I'm sure it will be a comfort to Melissa.
It's great that the community rallied to help out. It makes all the difference in getting to a point where you can have something positive to look forward to. My neice and nephew and their respective families lost everything in 2 separate fires last year a month or so apart. When I was shopping for new toys for the little ones, the clerk at Toys-R-Us came back after me before I left and gave me money for them. I nearly cried! It doesn't seem too often these days to find a stranger who cares so much. :)
