So sorry for your great loss. What a wonderful way to display all your husband's accomplishments rather than keeping then in a drawer.

What a treasure and a touching tribute to your DH. You did such a wonderful job on it, thanks for sharing.

Thank you for all the lovely comments. I am really overwhelmed by them. I made this quilt as one of my first "real" quilts and didn't know enough not to put batting and a heavy flannel backing. It weighs a ton, but is very warm. The Garfield block was a T-shirt that I got when we were stationed in Florida. I didn't take to the climate there, hence the sentiment on the cartoon. Cheers, Pat

Wonderful tribute to your husband and it'll be great to be passed down to a grandson. Sue
