I have finally finished and given the quilt I made for a 4 year old who lost her mother this spring. I made her a cuddle quilt that I posted a while ago under" Mommy Hug Quilt" and now I've given her the quilt that will be used on her bed. Even though she's 4 now I wanted her to be able to use the quilt as she grew older, so I didn't make it too childish. Pink was the mother's favorite color and is also the color the child likes best.

Beautiful memories all wrapped in the little ones quilt.
Sad to read that a four year old has had the sorrow of losing her mum.
You have a loving heart to make such a quilt.

Joan, this is wonderful. I am sure this child will have fond memories for many years to come and be comforted by this wonderful quilt.
