I love my story. I have told it here before once. My cousin Ferz (Jennifer) was diagnosed with lung cancer at age 45. She was like a sister to me. I spent a day a week with her (or more) the entire year she was alive. She was so creative and I wanted her to teach me everything she could before she died. We started a quilt in November 2009. She passed away on Christmas Eve 2009. We got as far as pinning the layers together. Since I have made 8 quilts! It is a true gift that she has given me. I am so greatful and think of her every single day while quilting.
