    I believe what you smelled was your mom and grandmom letting you know they were proud. I may be a gook, but I believe those things happen. I've had strange things happen to me before, and I'm pretty sure it was my mom or dad. Mostly dreams, but very timely.

    I was laying on the couch in the family room with a pillow and blanket, listening to a documentary playing on my laptop with my eyes closed, trying to go to sleep when suddenly there was a VERY strong floral scent. I mean VERY strong like someone had just sprayed perfume right in my face. I sat up and looked around, trying to figure out where it was coming from. No windows are open, there are no air fresheners, any perfume I have is upstairs in my bathroom. The cat came over to me (wondering what I was doing) and I smelled her to see if she got into something, nope. The scent was gone in just a few moments.

    I thought of my mother and grandmother and how I have heard about spirits and scents. I wished I could share the news with them and how proud they would be. True or not, it made me happy to think that maybe they know and were letting me know that.

    I agree totally that it was your mom and grandmom telling you how proud they are for creating such a beautiful quilt! Loved your daughter's comments on the fabric choices, that was funny. :lol:

    Kudos to Green Fairy for her amazing quilting.

    Congratulations on making a wonderful mutiple prize winning quilt!!!
