On one trip they happened upon a car accident, There were children involved and it was very cold and snowing. They gave the quilts to the kids to comfort them. They were afraid when they told me that I would be angry that they had given them away. I promptly replaced them with new ones. Kids got "it" parents never did and they never got anything I made.
scuse me while i wipe away the tears...this is the sweetest thing i have heard in a long time i just hope the babies who got their new quilts will cherish them as much as their first owners.
