    Love the transformation from shirts to meaningful and memory filled quilt. Lovely job!

    I love the quilt! That doesn't quite seem to say enough, but I do, and I will always treasure your love and generosity and kindness in making it for me.

    Thank you again,

    Ruth

    I had no idea a quilt could bring healing, so if you ever feel so inclined to do that for a friend, I would suggest you do just that!
    Isn't it rewarding to know how beautifully you've impacted her life and healing.
