    awesome job and you must be a real sweetie too. I would love to think that after I'm gone someone would finish a project left behind.

    This is very pretty. You are so sweet to finish this for her. After all those years, it must be such a pleasure to see this completed.

    This is one of the most beautiful quilts I have seen on this site. You have articulated so well that quilts are not just about the material parts. Those are just blankets.
