    It's a beauty....what an intelligent way to deal with a "life crisis"....much smarter than my current thought which is pack a bag, hop in my car and just drive. Well done and thanks for sharing.

    What a beautiful way to create a legacy and family heirloom. I hope you've recorded the significance of each of those blocks so that your grandchildren or great-grandchildren can some day look at them and know a little about who you are.

    Love how you floated the pieced checker lard border. Wonderful "me" quilt.

    What a beautiful quilt! It has so much meaning and I think better than a charm bracelet. I was reading thru all the comments and was just thinking that I hoped that you also have a written history about all of the blocks and what they meant to you. Like Pam S said - for your grandchildren and great grandchildren to know who you are - I can just see future children sitting on the bed with this quilt finding the blocks that go with the story....

    Hello Jenn, It was great seeing you mention the Rockingham block. I live in Rockingham Western Australia. Right on the ocean, surrounded by Dolphins.
