    My brother is on dialysis and he gets cold during the sessions. His favorite color is red, but I made a mistake with the blanket, I used stretchy material for the backing (sounded like a good idea at the time), so I tied it. Pugzilla wanted the blanket for himself but I out wrestled him.

    This was a very kind thing for you to do. Your mistake doesn't count when Pugzilla gave approval!

    Love your bright bow ties. I am sure your brother will be very thankful to have it with him during his treatments.

    Your brother will be able to wrap himself in your beautiful blanket; what a wonderful gift for him.

    Hugs. The quilt is great. I used stretch fabric on one I did for my son. (and he is 26) He drags it everywhere. The fabric is not holding up as well as cotton does. But he loves it. So will your brother.

    Your brother will love it and will think of you each time he uses it. It's a lovely quilt and I think you really ought to make Pugzilla a smaller version.

    I kind of like the 'tied' look! It adds interest! Your brother is fortunate to have you!
