A friend of mine had a quilt from DH's mom they found in the house they inherited when his dad passed. The one that was in real bad shape she took and cut the good parts into hearts and embroirdered I love to quilt on it then framed it like a picture and gave one to each family in their family. She also included me abd I will always treasure it knowing her family. Some of it went for pillows for decoration in the guest room. She of course removes them for company since they are special.
