It's amazing how much comfort and joy a quilt can bring. Blessings to you as you deliver this to your friend.

Did you know that tradition started in the Native American Nation? I think its a wonderful idea. In the Native American Community before you give it back to the Medicine man you wash the quilt in order to rid it of your "issue".
