    Default Rare Surprise
    Most of the time when I give a quilt away, I never hear much about it after the initial response. Imagine my surprise when I opened up facebook this morning to find a picture of a quilt I'd made several years ago (2005) for my niece who is away at college...it was on her dorm bed and she wanted me to see that she still uses it, loves the colors still, and that everyone who sees it comments on its beauty.
    Here's the quilt as it looks today on her dorm bed as well as a close-up from when it was made in '05.

    There isn't any nicer compliment that she could have given you. We are all delighted when whoever receiver our quilts is satisfied with the quilt we made.

    Looks great and I bet it is a warm hug from home every time she crawls under it!

    What a great and thoughtful thing to do by your niece. Think she is very proud of it.
