That's wonderful news and the quilt & monkey are lovely. Bet your DGS loved them.

That is really sweet!

PRAISE GOD FOR YOUR GREAT NEWS! My 2week old grand daughter was born with a heart issue. A valve was send the blood the wrong direction. But it has corrected itself! I know how happy I was to receive that news so I know how good you feel!! Beautiful quilt and monkey though.

WOnderful news. Prayers are answered. Very cute quilt.

Adorable monkey, beautiful quilt, and awesome news!

Wow, you did the perfect quilt and I love the monkey you made. He will always be able to tell the story to his children with the quilt and monkey. So creative!!!!

What great news that all is okay. What a cute quilt and sock monkey.

What a relief that he won't need the surgery. The quilt is adorable.

I am just so glad your GS is doing so well! I, too, love the sock monkey - both on the quilt and the huggable one. My son was given one when he was a little one. Still have it packed away for someday when he has a son. Wonderful news for everyone!!! A good day....

I've attached 2 photos of the quilt and the sock monkey I made, with a repaired heart tucked into a velcro pocket on his chest. The best part - the doctors did a heart catherization procedure, a much less invasive procedure, and discovered no problems! The original echocardiogram evidently was in error. He was born with Tetrology of Fallot, a deformed heart and had major surgery when he was 6 months old and blue, to reconstruct his heart. Today is my husband's 70th birthday and he said this news was the best present ever!

So happy to hear all is well for the little one and great birthday gift for sure. To have someone so thoughtful to send the material was great. Everyone on here is so nice. I have been writing here and talking and said I could not find humming bird fabric colorful, etc. and she sent me a pic of some fabs she had and she just sent them to me. Also, a book I was looking all over for and another great quilter sent it to me.....there are no better friends than quilter friends for sure. :lol: :wink:
