Thank you for the beautiful HUG

Thank you, Thank you, to all of you... I can't begin to find the right
Words to express the feelings that I have right now....when I came
downstairs this evening after taking a nap (I get so tired lately) and
DH said there was a package for me, and I opened it up and read the
wonderful note, and just broke down and cried before even taking the
quilt out of the box! And then and there was a breathtaking hug to
unfold, that you guys put together and sent to me, well it just so
overwhelming.

The happiness and surprise that others would get together (conspire???
LOL ) and do something like this for me is just overwhelming. I had to
explain to DH that they were happy, happy tears and he told me 'that
group is pretty special!" which of course you all are!

This means so much to me, and saying 'thank you' seems so feeble and
doesn't nearly begin to express how I feel. When I got into quilting
and found RCTQ, well it was just so amazing to be able to be part of
such a great group. I have been involved in a number of hugs over the
years, and now know first hand how wonderful they are, and the power
they have for the recipient. They're like a dose of good medicine,
one you can grab anytime you need....well, I feel truly blessed.

Thank you, everyone.

How wonderful. When I saw you reporting in a couple of days ago, I was
hoping that you would have your hug soon. Isn't it grand how you can feel
the love in a hug? Polly

I'm so happy for you! I hope that you will post some pictures of you
all cuddled up in your HUG! Or, if you are too camera shy, maybe a QI
or just the HUG!

Sending healing thoughts to you each and every day!

Dannielle

so glad to hear it arrived safely. wrap yourself in our love and prayers.

Mary, did you make pictures? Do I need to show off my new and unimpressive
camera skills? I'd have to bring along a gator or two but they smile
pretty. Polly

this picture I found a block I had missed so did some frog stitching to
remove a duplicate block and put the found in it's place. There were also 2
12 inch blocks that went with the top to Taria to put on the back before
quilting. Taria said she would also get some pictures.

So glad it's going to help in the not so good times, Irene. But it will
last and ease you into great times, too.

I was wondering when that was going to get to you! So glad it made you
feel better!
What a wonderful setting and finish you gave it, Mary!

Enjoy, Irene. Feel better.
