Scrappy Happy, thank you so very much for sharing this wonderful quilt. Sometimes we do simple things that have great meaning and importance for someone else. You just did. I think you should know about your unwitting gift.

I have been looking at huge bags of cut and uncut jeans that my late quilting buddy was saving for a denim quilt: hers, her sons' and her sons' friends. In the last year another bag with ours: mine, my children's, and my husband's joined the pile. She willed me her entire craft and sewing room, machines included, with instructions to make sure it got to all ages and skill levels of sewers. It's taken a year but I j-u-s-t got almost all of it to new homes.


Pat's stash and machines have found new homes. Your wonderful quilt came at EXACTLY the right time. I am going to cut and make a denim quilt for myself and feel comforted. It wouldn't have happened without you. Drat, she's right again. I can see her smirking.

You did a simple thing that made a great deal of difference. I thought you ought to know about it.

Thank you.

From Another Pat
