What a lovely thing you've done for her. I hope it helps her through her grief. I love how you worked the flags in on all four corners.

I found out today that my Aunt was visiting my Uncle's grave site so I met her and my cousin there and presented her the quilt, of course she cried.

Surely some of those tears were tears of joy too. How fitting that you presented it to her at his grave site. I'd like to think your uncle saw it and smiled. I'm so touched by your story. What a loving gift. I hope the quilt comforts your aunt - in many ways. Bless you.
