    So sorry for your loss.

    The amount of love you have stitched into the quilt will be felt by your Grandson everytime he uses it.

    I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your son and pray for a peace that passes all understanding. Your grandson did a wonderful thing by picking out shirts that he wanted you to use for a quilt for him. Not only will he feel the presence of his father every time he see/uses the quilt but hopefully the whole family remember the good times when "daddy" was around when they see the quilt also. You did a beautiful job on it. Hugs to you all!

    I bow down to you to be able to make a memory quilt from his clothing. I know it was a heart wrenching task. I bet you received "kisses" from heaven during the process. His son will treasure this quilt into eternity when they come full circle. Thank you for posting.

    I'm so sorry for your family's loss. Your quilt is the perfect combination of loving remembrance and celebration of the joy of life that continues even after tragedy. You made a wonderful quilt.

    I am sure that there are as many tears as stitches holding this precious quilt together. Your grandson now has his dad's 'arms' to wrap around himself. You have done a wonderful thing and made a beautiful quilt. Hugs.

    Fabulous memory quilt! I am sorry for your (and dil's) loss but it is wonderful that you have made such a wonderful quilt for his son ... and maybe some more for others. I love the design you chose for this.
