It went to a friend with cancer. he passed and his wife still uses the quilt for herself, so she is wrapped in him.

Isn't it amazing how God's plan is always the right plan, bless you for giving her that comfort...

What a pretty quilt. I know what you mean by no end to them. It seems when I do a quilt with scraps there is always one color I don't have as much as I think the quilt calls for so I get some more of that color and see a few other fat quarters that I think will look good and BAM I have more than I started with.
You did a great job, it's on my todo list
