Honor bestowed on my quilt
I made a comfort quilt for my friend to take to chemo with her. She loved that quilt so much. She lost her battle with cancer last Monday and we drove 600 miles to her funeral. I was so honored, instead of a casket cover of flowers, they draped the quilt on her casket. On the label I had written "If you need a hug, wrap up in this". They had the label showing. I cried a bucket of tears.. It just goes to show the smallest act of kindness means the world to someone else. It was just a scrappy string quilt, but she thought is was wonderful. I will attempt to post the photo I took of it b4 I took it too her. I tried to post the picture but somehow it didn't come thru.

Her family must have realized what a sweet wonderful friend you are and how much she loved the quilt. I would have
cried, too. In a busy and sometimes scary world, it surely comforted your friend to have such tangible proof that she was loved, wrapped in your hug.
