Christmas quilt pictures are posted!
We were able to deliver the last quilt today and I took some great pictures.
This one went to my SIL who already knew that the others got a quilt (her brother spilled the beans) but even knowing, she was going nuts in anticipation of getting hers. All quilts are now delivered. Some have asked if it's ok to use them! Others wanted to know how to display it (hang rather than use). I offered to put sleeves on ones that they preferred to display. I think some thought using them would be irreverent. I told them that it was very ok to use them. I thought it very special that the first thing they all did was to smell the blocks. The quilts were presented at three different times, and they all smelled the blocks. The shirts were clean when they were given to me but I didn't wash them before I cut them up. I even used blocks that had some slight staining. I thought it gave the quilt character. Here are some of the pictures. http://good-times.webshots.com/album/569461327ipVTpN Alice in NJ Happy New Year! |

What a great memory quilt for your I-L's - they are lucky to have you for a
S-I-L. They got a quilt full of loved shirts of their dad's & the love you put into making it - bonus!! Pauline Northern California "AliceW" wrote in message ...

They brought tears to my eyes! It's such a wonderful gift, and I just love
the thought that they smelled the blocks. You did a wonderful job, and they'll all be able to feel their dad give them a hug when they need it as time goes by. -- Louise in Iowa nieland1390@mchsi dot com http://community.webshots.com/user/louiseiniowa "AliceW" wrote in message ...

What can I say? These quilts are the perfect memorials of a man who
was obviously very loved. So beautiful and I can only imagine the emotions that were swirling. Sunny |
