Darren, what a lovely story. This is something that you should print out and save for your kids to read someday.
Let me tell you what I've been doing. A few weeks ago at my Sunday school class one of my friend told me she gave her sister in law my name. She was looking for someone to quilt for her. Since I have a machine I do quilting for the public. Once I called her she told me that she had two tops her mother has made for a long time since the woman died 18 years ago. I told her to wash the top and I'd meet her at Hancock we would need to border them to make them bigger. This top was a scrappy block with numerous colors.
I must admit it tuned out very pretty and I know this womans granddaughter will be proud.
