Small world - - brothers childhood friend ends up receiving a priceless gift started by mom and completed by his friend's sister years later. What a treasured gift you have given him with mom's name quilted on it.

Your story is absolutely wonderful (lots of tissues)! Beautiful quilt, pillow, table runner and label! It is amazing how things worked out and in such an incredible way! So many hands indeed played a role in getting this quilt done for such a terrific young man! Many blessings to you!
