the hospice my grandmother died in gave each new patient a lap quilt when they came in, and sent it home with the family after the patient passed away. i have sent them a couple... but i am working on 2 double wedding ring lap quilts with both of our favorite colors, blue & purple. one to send in her memory, and one for me to keep, but i keep putting them back in my closet, because every time i work on those, it's like having a visit with her. i guess i'm not ready to lose that yet.
