This is not an ordinary quilt.  This is the first one designed and made by a retired male nurse who used a pattern from his grandmother's quilt with fabric from his daughter's old clothes.  Men...get out your needles!

    Quilts are so awesome. There is always some story behind them and to me they are always made with love. Hope you are doing well. We miss you.

    Glad to see you back, I rarely use more than one finger on the keyboard just out of laziness. I hope you'll get better soon and with a new computer!

    It is beautiful work. I have never tried it, but admire people who quilt.
    Kate, so glad you are post-op. So sorry about your computer. We are happy you are back, even in trying circumstances. Wishing you every blessing!

    What a gift ... to be able to imagine and create this! (I use my needles only for lost buttons.)
