Your husband is very determined man, bet you are very proud of him. Recovering from the stroke as much as possible and then to make that stunning quilt, WOW!!!
|
What a blessing that he would share his story, recovery, and tenacity within this magazine. He certainly is and will continue to be an inspiration to all of us who are aging. Beautiful quilt too.
Merry Christmas and warmest wishes for a blessed New Year. Thanks so much for sharing with us. |
Determination and hard work are a winning combination. I'm so glad he is doing well.
|
Great accomplishment ... both your hubby and the quilt ... and beautiful quilt.
|
Thank you for sharing. Your DH is one determined guy! I'm gonna need a link to your original posting 'cause the one in the magazine isn't big enough for these old eyes. Even in miniature it looks absolutely amazing! I recently did some work with 1'4" squares and that is a mighty BIG challenge. Happy holidays. May your DH continue on his journey to full recovery. What an inspiration!
|
Oh - I see it now. Holy moly!
|
What a great inspirational story, thank-you so much for sharing.
|
It's a great picture of him....alive, smiling, recovered! And there are no words about the quilt....truly a masterpiece for both of you.
|
Wonderful story! Thanks for sharing.
|
Your husband is a truly amazingly determined man, and you must be a wonderful companion/spouse/caregiver. Obviously, togetHer you can do anything.
|
Absolutely unbelieveable. This is feat enough for someone who isn't recovering from a stroke! Just incredible! :thumbup:
|
WOW! What an accomplishment! And I know YOU endured a lot of hard work too. Your support & encouragement sure paid off! Bless you both.

Wow, congratulations to your husband! His quilt truly is a masterpiece. Stunning!
|
awesome! I can not look at the pix because it makes my eyes jump...but I love the closeup pix!
|
The quilt and your husband are both A M A Z I N G! I would say that I could not imagine the determination it took to make the quilt, but when I read about your husband's determination to recover, I can see where the determination for the quilt came from. God bless you both, and I wish you many more happy years of quilting together!
|
OMG. God being the operative word here. God bless you both. That is an incredible experience, and an incredible man. Thanks for sharing his story and that beautiful quilt.
