My niece had a quilt that her grandmother made for her and after years of use and mending that she did on the quilt, she asked me to make a new top and backing for it. I did. I made sampler blocks that pertained to her life and then I made a label and put it on the lower right corner of the back of the quilt and put a little saying on it and then put on that her grandmother made the quilt for her (when she was just a little child) with love and her aunt mended and put a new top and backing on it - with love also. I gave it to her at Christmas and I just got another note from her saying how much it meant to her. She has the quilt her grandmother made for her and the quilt I "mended" for her. And it gave me warm fuzzies to know that Grandma's quilt was still in use and I helped keep it useful. Oh yah, Grandma died several years ago, My niece is 56 and I am going to be 78. Oh yah, nice warm fuzzies!!!!!!! Edie
