    What an incredible friend you are. I'm sure they will treasure these items not only because they had started out with the mother, but, also that they were finished by their friend.

    It turned out beautiful! So nice of you to finish that for your friend. I know you put in a lot of work on it.

    Those are just outstanding. Such beautiful quilts. Can you tell us or show the way to a site that tells how to do that block border??? It's really pretty.

    You, my dear, are a wonderful friend. Several years ago, I was given a partially finished quilt. It was from a dear deceased friend of my quilting group. She had been trying to finish it during her illness. It did need 'help'. I took it apart and found that when working on it felt very close to this quilter. The finished product was given to her family.
    They were delighted. And, so was I.

    Bless you for your creative finishes, truly an Angel in Quebec. Really love your design on both sides of the quilt.
