    My cousin's 6 yr old grandson has been diagnosed with leukemia. We live too far away to help with fundraisers, shopping, cleaning etc. So I'm hoping this will help him out. His school principal, teachers and classmates signed some of the blocks to get him started. There is plenty room for more names and signatures! I used lots of kid prints and bright colors. Sure hope it brightens his day! Mailing it to him tomorrow.

    Signature block

    Back of the quilt - Thanks to Eddie for a great job on the quilting!

    What a dear precious thought for a young man with a struggle ahead. It will bring him great comfort.
    I have prayed for him and the families and medical caregivers.

    so cheery - this will surely bring some 'sunshine' to him during his treatments. What a wonderful gesture.

    That is such a neat idea - a signature quilt

    Great colors and the back looks as great as the front.
