    A friend asked me to make this quilt for a group of friends who wanted to created a memory quilt for the children of a fellow U of Miami alum. They either drew or printed photos on white squares; the rest of the quilt is in U of M colors-- bright orange and green. Difficult to pick out the colors. So not me. But I actually loved the quilt once done with it. (Do wish I'd had more time to do more quilting.)

    The quilt was presented to the family yesterday at his memorial service.

    Put on your shades.
