    it looks like the flowers are spreading into their frame on my end...like a never ending garden, and planted (sewn) in love beyond doubt. Someone is going to truly love that, and feel you are a treasure to do it for them. I'd think I had died and gone to heaven if someone made me something like that. I guess my dolls for the sick kids are my quilt, and hope all the comfort children get from them will keep me just as warm. I'm sure it will. Weightless warmth for me, but that will work. You did such a wonderful job. Congratulations and I am so glad I got to see this. I just love it. I am a 72 year old retired nurse, writer and crafter with some serious health issues, but like us all....hopefully, I keep on keeping on. Thanks again. Forgive me for almost writing a letter in response.

    THAT is one of the most beautiful quilts I've ever seen. What a lucky veteran to receive it! You did your dad proud!

    This is a great quilt. I plan to start a garden twist next year and hope I can do half as good.
