I hope when I pass on that everyone I ever made a quilt or anything for will bring it to the service! I want people to know how much I love quilting and my family!!! Good for you for sharing your DMIL's passion with others!!!!

I wanted to share a few photos from her memorial service and I felt my friends here would understand....We shared some of her quilts at the service and her pastor wove his message around her life in quilts.
