I lost one of my granddaughters (Hannah) when she was 5 yrs old. After a year or so I decided to make a quilt in Hannah's memory for my daughter. I tried to incorporate Hannah's favorite things. She like faries, butterflies and her favorite color was pink. The top was the faries in different pastels, the quilitng was butterflies and the back was pink hearts. I was filled with a lot of different emotions while making the quilt but not only was it worth it to make it for my daughter it also helped me. I hope your project helps you and your family.
