Yes, after my Mom passed away, I put her quilts away! Didn't want to look at them. I got busy making things out of her house coats, she loved, I made woven rugs, for my sister for Christmas.
This fall, I needed my Mom's quilts out, washed, hung out to dry as she would... and I put it on our bed, crawled under it, I can remember the night she passed, I was curled up next to her with my siblings. It was a wonderful feeling. And I have slept great with the quilt. I can see her hands as we hand quilted it.
