I am very sorry for your loss. Even when you know it is coming it always comes to soon. I cryed reading this and all the replies.
I wonder if when you picked out the fabric with her she thought someday soon you would need a hug from her. I am glad that you finished it. God does work in mysterious ways,he knew you would miss her and need something to help you through your grief. He knew the colors that she picked out would keep her close in your heart. Please wrap your self up in it.She would want to hold and comfort you.God Bless you and your family
Now I too am crying again,

Thank you everyone for all your kind words. I think I know what I am going to do. I made extra squares too thinking I would make some pillows but now I am redirecting my thoughts after reading all of what you wrote. When I am finished I will post the final pictures. Again thank you all for being there. :)

I'm so sorry for your loss... what keeps coming to mind is how much fun you had with her choosing beautiful fabrics... I hope you can treasure those precious moments when you cuddle in her quilt. It is beautiful!
