That is so pretty, you have done an amazing job on it. Making the extra quilts for the granddaughters was very thoughtful. This certainly was a labor of love.

You know the old saying - when life gives you lemons, make sweet lemonade. You did a fabulous job with what you were given.

exactly, I hate getting rid of something that could be useful again... when I think of what my mother and grd mother used to make a decorative bed spread aka quilt... it helps me be perseverant
