    Default daughter's healing block
    My daughter lost her grandpa this year, to help her with her grieving process we decided to make a quilt with blocks that remind her of her grandpa. He loved coffee and anything sweet. We still have several blocks to add, hopefully we'll get it done soon.

    Here are a few more of our healing blocks. She has really enjoyed putting these blocks together.

    Great blocks! I lost my Grandpa that I adored at about the same age. It was my first experience with sorrow and it took me a long time to recover. (((Hugs)))

    Can't wait to see it all together. I am sure that she will treasure it forever.

    What a great gift you are giving her. Won't it be nice to snuggle under the quilt and remember all the special times with her grandpa!
