Oh, what a heartwarming story! I loved it! My great-grandma, grandma, mom, aunts, sister, cousins, second cousins and even my 6 yr. old neice all have quilted or presently quilt. I don't think anyone in my family can escape it! It is a wonderful thing to hold my (great-grandma) Nanny's quilt and know that she has been gone for over 10 years, but I still have something that she made with her own hands. I would bet you that someday someone in your family will be feeling the same way!!
