Lets not forget the trust you set in me by forwarding QuiltE`s postal adress to me - behind her back! Having to ask myself would have spoilt the surprise:-)
Thank you all for the nice comments

It was well worth the "risk" that you took ... though you sure had me puzzled at the Post Office!!!
I kept questioning myself, as I was sure I had not given you my address, and yet here I had a parcel.
How could that be??
It kept me going for a bit, and alas! before I was told, I figured out our special friend was part of the intrigue!!!

BTW ... I don't think you explained the quilt's name "Ayubovan" .... does anyone want to know?

Yes, this piece is so perfect and deserves a ribbon, which is a great story - but the BEST part of this story is the friendship and caring between two people. Stories like this selfless-ness need to be shared - reminds us that there IS good and hope out there in the world. You guys are great (and so is the quilt!)
