Default beautiful quilt

He underwent major surgery and is continuing chemo. Their October wedding has now been pushed to May 2020. It was difficult to work on the quilt because of such worry and sadness for him. I intend to enter it in our county fair and gift it to them in October so they can use it this winter since it has a heavy flannel on back. The 4 angels I appliqued in the corners will hopefully watch over them while they continue this cancer journey. Life sure can throw curve balls!
The quilt is beautiful and I pray for the best results possible for your newphew.
