There isn't a wild hair left on Gracie, especially when she's licking my face at night when she's sharing the pillow. She loves to lay on the floor under the sewing machine, catching the long pieces that droop down.

    I have lots of butterflies in my yard and I will always remember your mother's contribution to her DGGD's quilt whenever I see their delicate *antlers*! I think she did a wonderful job and you and she created a treasure. Thanks for sharing your sweet story.

    Such a great story attached to a beautiful quilt. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed reading about great grandma's last quilting job. She not only left great memories, but I can bet she took with her a very nice feeling of having done something fun and lovely for her great grand daughter.

    What a beautiful story. Memories have been made and I'm guessing the story of the quilt will be told often. May you have continued peace.
