As my 92 year old Dad likes to say....this was a 3 hanky. The quilt is special and also beautiful along with the story and the friendship from it.

Happy New Year to all of us!

I've just finished reading this thread and I have tears running down my cheeks.

What a beautiful story Maria & Olivia. You 2 are blessed to have found one another. Your collaboration made a beautiful quilt and a memory come to life.

Thank you both for sharing....
