Klue I have decided to change the name of my quilt.
Last year my mother in-law went into the hospital she had some troubles that she had been in and out for off and on. I had spoken to her on a Thurs while she was in the hospital she asked what I had been up to (She lived in FL I am in MA). While on the phone I told her about all the block swaps I had been doing. She said I am going home tomorrow we will talk this weekend I would like to join you in some of the swaps. Well, she never did get to go home we lost her about a week later.
I was working on some of the week 2 blocks early (2am) into the morning on Jan 12. I was thinking to myself how my MIL would have really loved to do this and go on the computer and show them off to everyone. As I was thinking it felt like someone had their arm over my shoulder as if to say "whatcha workin on?". I stopped what I was doing and said hello Ma and then it was gone. I said okay I need to rename this quilt. At 6:30 am her Great Grandson was born. I know kinda corny but wanted to share my little story with my friends.
The new name is ----------- "Dear Jane a Message From Myrtle"
yup her name was Myrtle :wink:

I love your story Cher, and I am teary-eyed too. You sound like one of the lucky ones...to have a dear MIL that loved you, so much she came back to say hello! I count myself among the lucky one's with my MIL, and we are fortunate to have just celebrated her 78th birthday last week.
I love the name of your quilt, and thanks for sharing your story. It's these stories and life moments that we share that really bring us all closer together!
