That is an amazing quilt! I retired from the Navy & would be so very proud to receive that quilt as a gift! Keep up the beautiful work!!

I forgot to add that I saved some of his work shirts and strips from his pants to make a throw. They are still in a box with my other fabric. Probably just include them in a scrap throw or quilt at some point. NanaLynn

It was the love you put into it that makes your quilt's statement - you done good!
|
Some people do not show thanks. My MIL never did. Maybe he is overwhelmed by your wonderful effort. You made an awesome quilt!
|
You did a beautiful job!! :thumbup: Sometimes its hard for people to say thank-you.
|
I think it's beautiful! Very nice job!

Great quilt. As others have said most family members don't comment. I know from last Christmas I did 14 Quilts for Mine and my husbands family gift. No one has said thank you or anything. But I have been to several of their homes and the quilt is on display. A few have said what their friends have said about them. Keep quilting from your heart and enjoy the completed projects. Happy quilting to you.

I think it is gorgeous!! You did a great job.....be proud of it :-D

It is wonderful, so thoughtful. Sometimes our parents don't
know what to say to personal things. But they may be bragging to their friends, you may not hear anything. |
