A very special request
 
2 Attachment(s)
My DH's BF's son was in an accident earlier this week so he asked me to make a special quilt for him because he is in such bad shape they feel like he will be in a wheelchair for quite some time. He wanted it embroidered with all his favorite things on it so I was glad I had some blocks left over from a previous project. I stayed up all night last night and finished it this morning. For a quicky, I think it came out just fine.

This is truly the smallest quilt I have ever made, only 54" x 45".

Wonderful work, I hope is better soon!!!

seasaw2mch 07-26-2013 07:04 AM

Well things are not going to well with him. It seems thing are worst then we thought. Just to give you an idea of how bad this is, here's how it happened.
As he was coming home in his truck, another truck was coming towards him, pulling a car on a trailer. The trailer came detached from the other truck and came straight into him. He was on life support for 2 days because he could not breath on his own. He has 11 broken ribs and a ton of other injuries and yesterday when they tried to get him into a wheelchair, he had a stroke. So I'm waiting to here back today on how things are going.

If you believe in the power of prayer, PLEASE say one for him as he is in great need of all the prayers he can get.
Thanks
Sue
