    for the last 8 months i have worked so hard on 2 quilts, one was commissioned the other I just did bothe loved the first I said I'll write you a check, yes I wanted it for my daughter several times threw the process, the second I loved but never offered the check statement. today I finally finished the second quilt, both kaleidoscopes that i have posted the photos of previously, It was truly a sad moment, I really had a hard time letting go of this beautiful wraped quilt it went to friends that I care about who will love it just as much but for the first time, it really effected me! to the point of tears as I walked out the door.
    over sensitive? maybe just tired from daily life, but what ever it was I had never felt this before. I"ll post the photos once more for those of you who have not seen. these blocks were purchased on ebay , but still such a labor of love went into them, my daughter recieved the blue and yellow and my friend who will give the purple one to tonight as a gift to his lovely wife.
    Thank you for your thoughts for your comments Thank you in general I admire your work and your postings good or sad.. my prayers are with you threw it all as needed even though I don't post often back
