    Default Arrived at it's home today; Jewel Box comfort quilt

    Made this Jewel Box for an 8th grade girl with Hodgkin's Lymphoma, it arrived for her today.

    And this is why I make comfort quilts. That something I did can put this kind of smile on a young person's face:

    PS: I don't know where the extra photo at the end came from and I can't find it to remove it. Also, sorry the pic of the quilt is blurry. My quilt holder moved and I didn't catch it in time.

    I can’t think of any better way to top off Thanksgiving... God bless you and your heart for others! I am sure that many prayers went into and along with that beautiful quilt and its even more beautiful recipient... im adding mine as well!

    For many of us this is why we do what we do 😊

    Yes, often it feels better to give than to receive. You made that gal's day.
