I wish it had been around for my Dad who, toward the end, could hardly see anything at all.
    that is good information, thank you!
    I think she got her help a little late and I do
    know that she has one dry eye and one wet one.
    I think they did all they could, but she does have
    a lot of tricks and gadgets to help her do things.
    I admire her for pushing herself and I do think
    her quilts are amazing at this place in her life.
    She is 77 years old.

    thank you both. I think the story with this quilt does go
    up and down, up and down like a needle through thread!
    Wait till mom hears she rocks...lol, she'll probably say,
    "yeah, in my rocking chair!"
