    When Patty told me about her daughter, she showed up here with her 2 remaining sisters of the original 14 siblings. One, they had picked up at a retirement home, who had dementia, but enjoyed my garden. I promised to send Patty some seeds from my columbines, and sent those in the fall.
    I had a traumatic brain injury in 2008 and I remember when I was in the rehab place for a few months there was a time when I was told about some facial paralysis. I remember asking them if I would be able to smile.
    My recovery from that injury is miraculous, because not only can I smile, I can sew!
    So I decided to make quilts for people who need a smile or have made me smile - my list of people that fit that category is endless.
    I have also retained my ability to buy fabric!

    You are so clever. I love the zig zag border on this quilt. Great job.

    I couldn't have said it better. You are a thoughtful and caring person to do this for Korina and her mom. I had to look up Korina's story on a previous thread. Both are beautiful and sewn with love.

    It's a very special quilt and so thoughtful of you to think of the mother and bring a little sunshine and beautiful flowers into her life as well.
