I have posted before about my late DH's tiny piece quilts
DH's amazing tiny piece quilts

Since we moved we/I have been trying to find homes for them and maybe raise some money for charities. So I put one in a silent auction for the local free medical clinic, it was this one. A lovely lady I volunteer with bid on it but was disappointed she didn't get it. Little did she know, I had a duplicate at home (DH made two of each pattern). So I gave her the duplicate and she was thrilled.

I am somewhat disappointed with how little the quilts raise, and have shifted my focus to finding homes for them where they will be appreciated. I felt "nudged" by DH to give her this quilt, I know if they had ever met they would have loved each other.

And DH has a way of letting me know when he approves -- as I was walking back inside after giving her the quilt in the parking lot, I saw a red construction paper heart in the muck and snow of the driveway. It made me smile.

Your DH tiny quilts are amazing! And that's a wonderful story! They should go to someone who appreciates all of the time and love that went into them.

Unbelievably tiny pieces and such completely unique quilts. I have never seen anything like this. It's a wonder you can part with them; I'd have a very hard time. Your DH must've had amazing patience and focus.

I love the way you found his approval of your parting so kindly with his artistic hard work.
