My avatar is the second quilt I had made. It was my sanity saver. I had a major heart attack and was so lucky to be alive and my 82 year old aunt hopped a bus (12 hr ride)to come and stay with me for six weeks. She cooked and cleaned for my DH and myself. I had started to hand quilt it just before my heart attack so as I was unable to do much I sat and finished quilting it. My aunt had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at the time but didn't tell us. I finished it and gave it to her. She only had it about 2 months when she went to hospital.She wanted me to take it back and when I wouldn't she asked if she could give it to her daughter. Of course I was so touched and gave it to my cousin. She said she cherishes it so much. I was so glad she got it.
