    Mike loved it. He took it home to show his wife and decided to bring it back to place in his office. He installed the hanger about 2 weeks ago, came and got me to see it. His wife was very disappointed that he didn't leave it at home. I was tempted to make another one for him to have at home but am still thinking. Have my hands full right now.
    Thanks for all the wonderful and kind comments. I got the patterns for the mules from a coloring book about the State of Missouri and googled pics on line. I used batiks and blenders. Used the 60º ruler to make mountains out of batik scraps. I forgot to mention that this is made entirely from scraps.

    I have experienced this, too.

    Love it and the story. We can always learn something. You never know what people have been through til you walk in their shoes.

    That's wonderful! How would you suggest doing mini-donks? I love them. . . . don't have property to keep them and getting too old.

    Beautiful colors throughout the quilt. Also reparkably apt, all things considered!

    Google for some pics, put in donks or mini-donks and see what pops up.
