    This was the first time seeing something like this and it is such a great idea. There are a lot of people who don't have ties or room for or a place to store a quilt but this is perfect, along with the picture on the back. What a great way to have him there at Christmas.

    The stars are a beautiful idea that everyone will always cherish. Such an inspirational story and I'm sure that the making of each and every star made you feel a little closer to Dad. Thanks for sharing.

    It has all been said!!! All I can add is that I can see this being done with Dad's ties. Would make an awesome addition to the annual Christmas tree. Your project is spectacular.
