    What a great photo and a wonderful surprise for you! Not only does he value that quilt looks like some other values may have been passed on. Look at all those books that young man has! Bet you read to your SS!

    It still looks great! Maybe it's time for his son to get a quilt of his own?

    This is such a great example of the fact that sometimes we never really know how much something we do - the kindness, the favor, the word - the quilt - means to someone or touches their heart. Your story made me smile.
