Good for you and lucky for them! Did you go to any fabric stores in SLC.

Very nice of you. I was a owner/operator (truck driver) for many years. Yes ptquilts, this is a nice way to stay connected to home. Something truckers never seem to get enough of. Long Arm you did a big thing. We truckers move America but are often looked at as second class citizens. I can attest that he felt more more than happy for getting his quilt clean, the touch of human kindness goes a long way. Thank you for helping him!

Can you only begin to imagine the stories those quilts could tell.......and the miles they have traveled !!!;)
|
What a great story! Who would have thought? Wouldn't those Grandmothers be proud of their traveling quilts?
|
Thanks for sharing this heart warming story. There is nothing better than wrapping up in the quilt Grandma made for you, no matter how old you are!
|
That is sweet of you to do.
