    I tried to take good care of it, thinking to give it to my daughters for their children. They both agree with me where it should find it's home.

    She will love them both. This way she can use the one you made (it's really cute, btw) and save the one her mom made as a memento, maybe even for her child. What a loving gesture.

    Both are beautiful, she will so love getting the one her Mom made years ago. So kind of you to give it to her.

    Your generosity and compassion will always be symbolized for her by your quilt and her mom's is the loving hug she needs right now. What a wonderful multiple gift you are giving!!!!

    Yours is very beautiful and in such cheerful colors. I am sure the daughter will love that her Mother had made the other and will treasure both of them.

    She will love your quilt as much as her mothers because you made it. It turned out beautiful! Sending both was a great thing to do.
