A few years ago, I was given 6x6 fabric squares. I was not enthused with the pattern or colors. But, I was thankful and put them away. About six months ago, My DD and I were going through some of my things and found the patches. She absolutely loved them. Hmmm, what am I missing here? I realized that they were given to me by someone we both love and those patches represented her. So, I gave my DD a couple of them and I am now in the process of creating a quilt with those patches - I love them, now. I believe time will tell. Quilt what you want with your heart's content. Give it freely and pray it will be used or preserved wisely.
