    It is a wonderful tribute to someone who put in so much of her time and love into her craft. When my Granma passed we had quilts all around the funeral home including two laying over the casket. Thanks for the story.

    This brought tears to my eyes - not only the love the grandmother showed her children and grandchildren but the love and respect they had for her and the understanding that her quilts were more than "just quilts".
