    I think this quilt might well be the prettiest batik quilt I have ever seen. I am not super crazy about batiks in a quilt. I see pretty batik fabrics but just don't want to put them in a quilt. But I sure do like yours and I am willing to bed your son and his GF will like it too.

    What a beautiful quilt. Great ideas for the batting and quilting to make it soft and warm.

I actually got them from the trash box !! His most treasured item, his grandma's music box( a very simple one, not a beautiful one) that was never seen again.
    I can't even imagine how I would have felt if that happened to me. Hopefully, somebody told her what it all meant. Are they still together today? I don't know if I could ever give this girl a gift if I were you. Always be wondering if she appreciated it. Thanks so much for your comment.
