What a treasured heriloom your quilt will be! And so inspiring. I am getting ready to hand-quilt my first quilt for my son (or maybe for me?) and was truly motivated by the beauty of your hand-stitching. I don't expect mine to be such showcase quality, but do know that each stitch will connect it all with the love I felt for the quilt itself and the son I hope one day to pass it along to.
