Unfortunately....
 
She is with her daughter standing vigil in the final moments of her life so I am hopeful this quilt will wrap my inlaws with love and provide them with some sort of peace when they return home and grieve the loss of their daughter... I'm sorry to weight heavy on this happy post but, unfortunately, that is where she is right now.

This is just gorgeous. You MIL will definitely love it. My sister, 75, wants me to add a ruffle on the quilt I'm making her, but I'm not sure how to do this. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Very pretty quilt and such a nice touch with the pillows with the ruffles. Your MIL will sure enjoy it

Thank you for replying. That is a difficult situation to be in - - - - - (I never know what to say next that would be appropriate - my usual hope is that the person that is dying has an "easy exit" and that the ones left behind are left with good memories and a sense of peace.)
