HUGs Delivered
Very sweet, Teri. I'm betting your Grandma will really enjoy looking at
those beautiful colors. I was really wowed by them in the pic, so they must be wonderful in person! Your Grandpa looked very pleased, and you're right, the quilt really did look bright and cheerful in the room. It's nice to know that when you left, so much stayed there with them for comfort. My MIL, who also has dementia seemed to like hers too. She kept stroking it and saying, 'Pretty, pretty'. chipper "Terbear" wrote in message news:3Prnf.842$z21.422@fed1read04... We delivered the HUGs to my grandparents Sunday. They are in two different locations, so it was a very long day. Grandma, who has dementia, thanked me for the quilt before I left, which made me happy that she remembered that I brought it to her. I embroidered my name & number on the quilt....things do disappear at her care home...she lost her glasses & they have yet to be found. Grandpa was really surprised to see me...I said "you must be lost in the area"....knowing I hardly make the trek out to the Valley. He loves the HUG, and even asked me if I can take some of the money off of the quilt (we were going for a money theme in his HUG). He also asked me to remove his comforter & place the HUG on his bed...it was a perfect fit & brightened up his room so nicely. He is sure to sleep well with all those HUGs from all around the world!!! I am so grateful that my grandparents are still around to enjoy the HUGs, and I am so grateful to all the quilters that helped me by making these HUGs possible!!! Here are some pictures....know that even though their faces might not show it, they are both smiling inside!! http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/terbearg (that is my father sitting with his mother) http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/terbearg2 Here is grandpa -- Terbear~Curator of the HUG Gallery~ http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/HUGS Teri's quilts~ http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/Tquilts |
