    A few weeks ago I posted a picture and asked you all for help. I was given a bag with quilt blocks that had been started by someone in 1983. She pasted away 3 years ago and her husband just now found the quilt blocks. Their daughter is now getting married in Oct. and I was asked to finish the quilt as a present for their daughter.
    Below is the quilt and the picture of the gray boarder is a dragonfly. That is how she signed all of her projects, so I did dragonfly's all around the boarder. The heart is what is in all the white blocks and she did that part as well.

    That brings tears to my eyes. It's like getting a present from her mom who will be standing at her wedding. Awesome.
