A dear friend's Mom has Alzheimers. She still likes to do counted cross-stitch on pre-printed quilts. She is supposed to
only stitch thru the top layer to hide the back. But she is not quite able to do that anymore.

So when she finishes a quilt, her DD brings it to me and I re-quilt it with a nice back to hide the stitches. Then her DD does a binding and gives it back to her Mom.

Mom gives it as a gift to her G-grands. Mom has commented that she is doing fine still since she can XS and still hide the stitches. (She has already forgotten they showed at one time because her DD told her not to worry about it...when she was all done it would look just fine)

A labor of love and happiness for all 3 of us and for the recipient too.

Happy Quilting, Kathy
