You can sense the love of Jesus in your quilts!

It doesn't get any better than that for me.

when my youngest daughter found a wedding dress, that was to small for her...and she bought it anyway, told the lady " no problem My mom can make it fit"I hung it in between my sewing room and the living room doors and looked at it for a week ....few nasty words left my mouth.then out of the clear blue...I made it work.
and she was so pretty ...her dress cost less then $50.00to buy and remake.

My best compliment in recent memory was from my DIL. She said she saw me as a confident woman. This sure did not fit my past.

When my DH compliments me on my cooking,how hard I worked on te farm with him
and how I "put up w/ his father after his Mom passed away. His father was a sweetheart so it wasn't all that difficult!!!!

When my oldest son who was 41 called to thank me and was in tears as he was so happy with his quilt. It was all 70's colors as he was my only flower child...LOL. Everytime I walked past it, I started singing Yellow Submarine and sent the Beatles CD with the quilt. He was raised on Beatles music. I embroidered a peace sign in the corner plus a label to reflect the time,1967 when he was born.

When my son posted his wife's picture on facebook wearing the wedding dress I had made her 15 years ago. she has recently lost alot of weight and her wedding dress is huge on her now. He wrote a comment on the picture that his mother made the dress and handbeaded all the lace. Several people commented about how beautiful it was. Then the other day, their daughter (my beautiful granddaughter who is 10) asked me if I would make her wedding dress because she will be taller than her mom and her dress would be too short. She said maybe we could use some of the same beaded lace since I will be too old to handbead all that lace again! But even that was a compliment to me!

I think mine was this weekend!! I made the attached family history wall hanging for my mother in-laws 80th birthday. I gave it to her on Friday and she wanted it displayed during the party for everyone to see. Now...I have 20 people that wants one...LOL

I made a photo quilt of the family for my FIL 80th birthday. He never used it to cover up - he wanted to hang it on the wall. He was a carpenter and made a beautiful quilt hanger for it. It was proudly displayed in their home. When he died in March at the age of 90, they draped the quilt on the altar at his funeral. That made me so proud and so glad I made it for him.

Also, yesterday after church, my 7 YO GS asked if I would be a sponsor at church day camp. I told him I thought I was too old (I'm 64) but he said I was a fun old person!
