My son travels for work and the first thing he unpacks his birthday quilt. It had a wildlife theme, so it reminds him of home. My daughters have been equally appreciate. # 3 daughter had surgery and needed to stay quiet for 6 weeks. Every time, except one, I visited her, she was wrapped in her quilt. That time she was in a fleece blanket I had made her and the quilt was on her visiting daughter. My GD was in the Marines and had become unaccustomed to our climate. She was in luck. I had stopped in to deliver her wedding quilt - her response - "How wonderful! Now we'll have some color in our rented apt." The list goes on, but so far, my quilts have been appreciated. My label says that a quilt is a blanket of love.
