lovrazz.....I echo your thoughts on putting a "ribbon" on cancer quilts for anyone....very depressing. Why do they have to reminded of their illness 24 hours a day? A beautiful quilt such as the one you are giving allows them some comfort and perhaps allows their thoughts to drift to happier times. The ribbon only draws them back to stark reality.
I should add that I lost my step-father, mother, sister, high school sweet-heart to cancer, and I am a survivor of cancer. I wanted happy peaceful thoughts for each of them.

Beautiful !! I made a warm wishes quilt for my good friend who battled breast cancer. I know how emotional it is to ma
do, and so meaningful and full of love. I'm sure your friend will feel cherished as she wraps herself in her quilt.
