    This is a "celebrity" quilt I made for my son. He has had his picture made with several celebrities during his life so I thought I would put them in a quilt. The top picture is him with Reba McEntire, there is him with Barbara Mandrell, the high school cheerleaders, Carmen, his sister, Festus, Lee Greenwood, with the wonderful kids from Texas High School Rodeo Finals, Sherry Lewis and more. He has cerebral palsy and suffered through many trials in his life, but as you can see he has been blessed by so many. And he has been a blessing as well. This is just a sample. The butterfly quilt is made of old hankerchiefs given to me by one of my customers. Some were her mother's and she is in her 80's. (the daughter)
