How wonderful of you to help them make this quilt for their Mom. Did she cry, I know that I would have. Very special. BrendaK

yes, she almost cried. i told the GS that men quilt also. and explained how men used to sew grandpa's patches on his leather jackets when he rode motorcycles. and that they made their living at it. etc.
