TG, I’m glad to hear Bill is in the arms of his family and that they all have one another.

Just keep the family in prayer - and send a note to him about how she played a part in your life. He knows all about us - but is not tech savvy to look us up!

So lovely that all the family attended Jan's funeral. I know that was a big comfort to Bill. I hope at least some of them can stick around for a while and help him. I believe she has 2 long arm machines... one in Wyoming and one at their winter home in Florida. It's going to be a big job to dispense all of her quilting goods.
It's still hard to believe she's gone....

It saddens me to hear about Jabba but I rejoice in her heavenly journey! Her family will have so much to figure out as the family helps Bill sort through things. My prayers go out to her family.

It was nice to hear that Jaba's whole family was there to support Bill. They will have their hands full with all of her quilting things. I had the pleasure of spending some time with her when I lived in Florida. She was a wonderful person and will be truly missed.

I have one more block for Bibliostone. Biblio, Jaba would have made two for you and I realized you'd get two F8s back so I made a block with some remnants I had and others sent.. You'll still get 2 F8s back but will have the same number of blocks everyone else has, 18. Hope you like it.
