When my two adult sons died ( 2 1/2 yrs apart) their wives gave me their shirts. When I finally could cut into those shirts, I made a quilt for each of their children (3 in total) and did a very memorable label for each of them, regarding their dad. The eight year old really seemed to appreciate it at that time, but now I don't think she even knows where it is (she's 21 now) (I have stored it at my house, and she doesn't even know where it is.) The other two (ages 4 & 6) were too small to appreciate, I know. But, I don't think mom has reminded them about them at all.....put up out of sight.....they are now teenagers. My heart still breaks in more ways than one!! I hope I have enough time when I find out I'm about to die, that I can give my quilts away to people who will appreciate them.....some people will NOT get one. LOL
