Talking Twiddly Di

Just finished this twiddle quilt/blanket for my neighbour's elderly Dad with dementia.
Hope he gets to use it often
You all have a lovely week-end and wishing you also all the very best for 2019!!! <3

That’s a great fidget quilt...lots of components. Very thoughtful of you to make him one.

I love your blanket. You are sweet and kind to do that for the dad. Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most.

And, I have to say, I am going to steal you saying and make a banner with it for my house. As we age, I see hubby and myself growing more weeds than I want to see. Negativity is really creeping into our lives. Your saying will be a helpful reminder to stay positive.

Lot of thought went into this one. Nice! I'm so glad you called it a Twiddly Di quilt.

Wow Nanjun, don't think you need to be afraid of dementia now. My hubby at 75 started showing signs and now at 80 has been diagnosed with Parkinson's and Lewy Body dementia. Not nice!

Your fiddle quilt is wonderful. You are special for doing this for him. I also love your saying. Do you know who was the first to say it or did it just come from you? I want to give credit where credit is due.

Mama Linda sorry about your husband's health problems. I will be praying for him.
