Its truly a wonderful quilt! I hate that you can' give it to her personally, but she will appreciate it and love you for it just the same. You did a great job!!

Hot off the presses!! I finally figured out how to get these pictures to scan. Here Gramma is sitting with her quilt, which is upside down and one with Gramma standing next to it and the quilt is sideways. Either way...Gramma is with her quilt in the same picture, which is what I wanted. I didnt' realize such a tiny quilt at 60" square would be so much BIGGER than she is!! I love this thread. I've watched her quilt go from a block here and there to a quilt I'm really proud of. I've been commissioned to make a copy...my first quilt for hire. Gramma's Sampler is going to live on....

Well, she sure looks nice and cozy sitting there with her quilt. She does kind of look dwarfed by the quilt. Congrats on your commission. I, for one, certainly enjoyed watching the progress and stories of the quilt. Now that's a true labor of love!
