How wonderfully generous!! The quilt you made is beautiful and will bring a lot of joy but your gift of her mother's quilt will be a comfort and a connection not only to her mother but also to you. A very loving gift!

This is as quilts should pass to the new generation. Everyone gets to enjoy. The giving and receiving and the using and the loving. A wonderful story.

peace

I agree. I love the quilt you made & it alone would have been a fabulous gift but you went a step further & I think that is so special. What a kind, warm-hearted aunt you are!

You did a very good thing. As important as Myrtle's quilt was to you, I am sure it will be doubly important to her daughter. Both are very lovely.

I'm sure she will treasure them both! What a wonderful thing for you to do! Your cousin's daughter will think of you and her mom everytime she uses them.
