Don't know if you knew elizabrat from the swaps on the board... she ran the mug rug swaps for a long time until she just got too sick to continue. She had bad health problems had been getting dialysis for a long time, and we were all hoping she would get a donor kidney before it was too late. But no... didn't happen that way. She got so sick they just stopped the dialysis and she went into hospice and passed away rather quickly once she was there. A few people from the mug rug swap said they wanted to do "something" in her memory, so it was decided to make some mini quilt wall hangings to adorn the walls at the hospice. This kitty one is my contribution to the effort, in Linda's (elizabrat's) memory. She was a very upbeat person and I believe she would have wanted her friends to go on enjoying their quilting and life!

Jaba is a local friend of Linda's, and she offered to take the donated quilts to the hospice for us.
