It's hard to lose someone you love, especially unexpectedly. The fact that you mourn him so deeply means you must have had a good relationship - what a blessing!

As far as quilting goes - put that quilt away for now and do something new. It will give you a reason to keep going.

Sorry to hear of your loss. In time, quilting might be the best therapy.

So sorry about the loss of your dad. It is a hard thing to get through for sure and I think we do look for things to do with our hands while going through the grief. It may not always work out because our concentration is not good. When I lost my dad it was summer time and I ended up doing a lot of canning. I made lots of salsa. We never ate a bite of it but it did keep me busy.Hang in there. It will get better.
