When I'm constructing a quilt for someone special from the planning to completion my thoughts are always about the person who it is being made for. I too hope one day my loved ones will remember me and be wrapped in the love of those quilts I made 'just' for them.
Thank-you for posting this it has made my day!
Thank you for putting my sentiments in words so eloquently!
