    Beautiful and absolutely priceless.

    I have a box full of my dear Daddy's shirts. One they I'll use them in a special quilt, too.

    I'm so sorry for your loss.

    That is such a perfect quilt. The pattern complements the shirting prints so well.

    My dad lost his battle with cancer in 2013 and I still have some of his shirts stored away. I thought I could make something with them, but I just can't cut them up. It's not time yet. Maybe someday or maybe not.

    I know your mom is going to love it.
