I'm so sorry for your loss. God bless and keep you. Your husband looks so happy with your gift of love. I know it brought him great joy. Prayers are with you.

sorry for your loss. He looks mighty proad and delighted with all the work you put into the quilt for him.

BrendaK 05-14-2012 04:21 PM

Beautiful job on the quilt. As you can tell by the smile on his face he thought so also. Add my prayers for you on you and your familys loss. This will be a great memory of how much he loved his quilt. I also want to do an Attic Windows hope it turns out half as great as yours. BrendaK

It is a gorgeous quilt and your DH looks so happy. Deepest condolences to you and your family on your loss.

From this picture, I'd say your DH knew who and what was special to him! So sorry for your loss, but so glad he got to see it finished! BTW...the quilt is awesome! Love it!

Your hubby is actually beaming. How wonderful to have this photo to blow up and frame for the bedroom. He was so proud. The quilt is awesome I just love looking thru your windows at the beautiful sight. (I too am a widow)

TanyaL 05-14-2012 05:08 PM

I am so sorry your husband died. I know Widowhood was not a group you wanted to join. I wish you well on your new life. I'll be joining the widow's club in about a year. What a reluctant, resentful, sorrowful membership list! I pray you have lots of happy memories.

How cute........

I am so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful picture of your hubby who looks so happy and pleased with his quilt. I just love that quilt. You did a great job of the attic window pattern. I have a DDIL who would love it. She is crazy about penguins. Thanks for sharing...even in your time of loss. ((((((Hugs)))))) and prayers are coming your way.

nativetexan 05-14-2012 05:23 PM

Oh Sweet man! I'm so sorry to hear you lost him but am very glad he got to see your last touch of love for him.
keep it with you and cuddle it to have him "hold" you.
i made my best friend a quilt for her hubby who was also in hospice. I still am not sure he got to see it but i did get it to her in time. For some reason when i was making it, i thought he might like it. I'd never made one for him before.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved husband. The first thing I noticed when your picture opened wasn't the quilt, though. It was the look of joy on your husbands face -- and he wasn't looking at your quilt (although it IS beautiful)....he was looking at YOU.

Cheshirecatquilter 05-14-2012 06:06 PM

You obviously made him a happy man. It shows in more ways than one.

fivepaws 05-14-2012 06:52 PM

A beautiful quilt. I am so sorry that your husband died. It is an awful experience to go thru. My prayers are with you.

beadywoman 05-14-2012 07:09 PM

Oh! My heart breaks for your loss! When you first posted your penguin quilt, I just loved it and how proud your husband looked holding it. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

earthwalker 05-14-2012 07:18 PM

Thank you for sharing your story and the lovely pic. My sincere condolences on the loss of your husband. I am sure looking at this beautiful quilt during his time at the hospice gave him great comfort. My thoughts are with you.

jaciqltznok 05-14-2012 08:22 PM

I am so sorry for your loss....I know you worked very hard on that quilt! It makes me smile to see your DH so happy with it....but then, it is a HAPPY looking quilt! Hang it up and use this pix to make the label!

GreatStarter 05-14-2012 08:51 PM

My prayers are with you & your family for your loss. So glad that DH had the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful quilt. I know you will cherish it & the memory.

BCaplette 05-15-2012 03:30 AM

My heart is breaking for you. Stay strong in knowing that he really did treasure your work, not wanting to use it for fear of "messing it up". What a perfect thing to do to hang it in your room so you both can enjoy it. Him from above and you from your bed. :)

#1piecemaker 05-15-2012 03:35 AM

Handsome man. I'm so sorry for your loss. Love the quilt! He looked awful proud of it!

LoriMcc 05-15-2012 03:48 AM

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. The quilt must have given him a lot of pleasure in his last days.

Beautiful quilt and beautiful man. God be with you now and know that many prayers are coming your way.

lue 05-15-2012 04:45 AM

There are no words to reflect your loss but like the others on the website, I am so happy that you were able to complete the quilt for your DH. I pray that the good memories will carry you through this difficult time. I know that he appreciated it. I LOVE penguins and I'm going to look for the fabric you used so that I can make one like yours!

valleyquiltermo 05-15-2012 04:50 AM
