If he is on your Mom's side, I hope you got some of his genes.
We had a little lady in our town who was in WWII. She was a nurse serving in North Africa. She started a relationship with the hospital supply SGT. Things were hard to get in those days, but he made sure she got what she needed. They got married when they got home and she became the school nurse. She also got a trip to Wash DC to be honored. She lived to be 99.

Your quilt is wonderful! Such great colors for a guy. It is so rewarding to have someone really like something you have created for him.
What is the pattern name or did you design it yourself? I have some batiks that would look good in that design and a bunch of jelly rolls that I have been trying to figure out what to do with. I do hope the color blocks start with 2 1/2". Oh well, if they don't, they will when I get through!

There is no greater reward to us quilters than a response to a gifted quilt like you describe. It is so nice when our labor of love is recognized and appreciated as such. I remember when you posted that quilt in photos and its so wonderful to read the follow up story. Thanks for sharing with us.
