I'll gladly tell you about both, if you don't mind a little bittersweet tale. :D A year ago this month we learned our DD was pregnant with her second child, at that time we also learned my Dad had terminal prostate cancer. While caring for my father I decided to make this quilt since it had applique and blanket stitching that I could easily work on while he was resting. Dad passed in May and I finished the quilt on Father's Day. This quilt was for my new DGS (dear grandson), he was born in August...on what would have been my parent's 56th wedding anniversary! Coincidence?, I think not! Liam is now a healthy 3 1/2 months old and both he and his quilt have eased me through a particularly difficult year. Thanks for asking :-) .
