LOOKING AT YOUR QUILT IS LIKE LOOKING AT YOUR HEART. It shows a beautiful soul. So sorry about the lost of your son. I have a son who is a very bad diabetic. He's suffering now with his toe, and is frightened that he's going to lose it. I can understand a small portion of your pain that you must have went through with your son's suffering. May God be with you always. Hugs,love and prayers to you and your family.

Jenni, what a beautiful quilt! Yes, Joshua is definitely smiling!

My condolences on the loss of your son. Those of us who have lost children can take strength in knowing our Heavenly Father knows our grief...His Son died, too.

Beautiful quilt top. Thanks for sharing. It's amazing how many quilters have heartaches and quilting eases that pain and lets our spirits soar again. I'm sure Joshua had a grin from ear to ear!!
