    so I posted this photo 3 or 4 days ago feeling quite grumpy having spent so much time this year in creating quilts for babies and grand babies none of which are mine, this is the note I received from the recipient of the next to the last baby quilt:
    "over the years I've seen the amazing quilts you've done for babies and grand babies and I always wondered if one day Mike and I would be lucky enough to have a little one to receive a precious quilt. Yesterday when I opened your gift it hit me how lucky and fortunate we are. When I saw the label I actually got a little teary....." Now how can I stop giving more baby quilts?

    Her thank you came at a perfect time for you; and her wording certainly shows her appreciation for your wonderful baby quilts.

    What a lovely thank-you card! There really are people who understand and appreciate the time it takes to create a beautiful quilt like the one in your picture. Your family and friends are lucky to be the recipients of your creations.

    It's nice to hear that we've touched someone's life and heart with our quilts. Bet you've been smiling like the cheshire cat since you got that thank you note!
