Oh yes! The one I just gave away to Tymeless hearts for their silent auction. It was really hard to hand it over. I may have to make a bid on it to try and get it back. :-).

Seriously, is there any quilt you would love to have back? This is the link to the quilt I am referring to.

Yup! It is a Bento Box. It was made for cousin's DD as a wedding gift.
DH loved the quilt so much he wanted to keep it and buy the couple a toaster.
The marriage lasted about 2 months. The bride should have returned all the gifts, but never did. I should have bought them the toaster!

Beautiful. I ran to my mother's home after she passed away to retrieve a quilt DD and I had made for her. I took it back for my daughter, who was the one that gifted it to my mother. My DD, now 22, uses it all the time. I know it gives her great comfort.
Thank you, when I feel depressed or sad or that I need some strength, I wrap myself up in it.
