    The quilt is beautiful! I'm sure it will be a comfort to Melissa.

    It's great that the community rallied to help out. It makes all the difference in getting to a point where you can have something positive to look forward to. My neice and nephew and their respective families lost everything in 2 separate fires last year a month or so apart. When I was shopping for new toys for the little ones, the clerk at Toys-R-Us came back after me before I left and gave me money for them. I nearly cried! It doesn't seem too often these days to find a stranger who cares so much. :)

    Love your arrangement of embroidery. What a beautiful gift.
    I'm in Stuart, by the way.

    So beautiful and so thoughtful. I really like the way you stitched the unicorns is light thread to contrast with the darker fabrics. They look ethereal.

    What basic pattern did you use? It really is a good one for highlighting machine embroidery.

    I'm so sorry for the family's troubles. That's a gorgeous quilt and the love that went into it is priceless.
