What a wonderful gift the quilter has -- a perfect balance of seriousness and lightness -- patriotism and fantasy -- those butterflies! It's a real shame that as we age our offspring revert to their teenage years : they "know it all" once again, and do not see our needs to continue to be recognized as the creative and functioning people we have been for so very long! Just because we are older, doesn't mean someone else needs to make decisions for us! Thanks for posting these -- if they have internet, it would be wonderful for them to realize how much we are all enjoying this body of work.
