Aw, that's lovely! What a kind thing you are doing - how wonderful that it's appreciated!

And your SIL is a keeper, too - people don't express appreciation very often any more - someone who knows how to say "thank you" - they're real gifts to us, aren't they?

We quilters have been given the gift to create memories for our loved ones. What a wonderful gift you have give, and it is heart warming to hear how it was received.

This is what quilting and family should be all about. Very touching and what a positive affirmation; caring so much for your MIL, continuing and finishing her legacy, and kudos to your extended family for them to reciprocate with the note. Would your family be interested in adopting a slightly worn 58 year old? I've had my shots, am housebroken and can quilt, quilt and bake.
