My dear friend Jan, who I made this quilt for has sadly past away...without even setting eyes on her quilt.

I am really sad and as Jan had no close family, I have asked for the quilt to be returned to me so I have a keepsake of her in the quilt. Jan only saw the very first block as she wanted it to be a surprise, I just hope she is looking down and can see it :cry: :cry: :cry: :shock: :shock:
So sorry for the loss of your friend. Glad she got to see the first block. Hugs
