Love your quilt and your dad will love it too. BTW I like your backdrop also - great display.

It is beautiful! My mother also has dementia, so I understand every thought you had when you put this together. I personally wouldn't wait to give it to him. I believe this is not really a Christmas Quilt, this is a Living Memory Quilt. When he passes, how lovely and honorable if he were to take it with him, or you to have it back in remembrance.
