That is sad, but in a way, I do understand why someone would donate/give/sell it.

I lost my mom 5 years ago. I made her a special quilt for her bed on the nursing home. She loved it. I know she treasured it dearly.

When she passed, I could not be around that quilt. It made me cry because I missed her so much. My dh, knowing how much that quilt meant to me and my mom, took it to use in his truck. He is an over the road truck driver.

So, I feel good that he wanted it and I am still sad when I wash and dry it for him. It reminds me of my mom, but not when she was well and it reminds me of she died with that quilt covering her.

I hope and pray somebody buys this quilt and can use it. It is sad to see a precious gift just there with nobody to love it.
