Diane sent a text with the following photo my son and DIL last night. She had finally received, and opened the package with her quilt. (She had been back to Johns Hopkins in MD for consults with her physicians.)
"Just WOW!!!!! I can't even put into words how much love I feel right now!!! DUDE!!! I am so in love with this very very special blanket and awesome book**. You [DIL] are very special to me. I am so grateful for you and [DS] and [DS]'s Momma - unbelievably talented! My family and I are just in absolute awe with the kindness and support you've shown us!!! (heart) (heart) (heart) (heart) (heart) (heart). I WILL FOR SURE SNUGGLE WITH IT EVERY NIGHT!!!"
**my son & DIL put together a book of pictures of the quilt. They took it out for beauty shots.
like this one.
and this one of me, and included it when they sent her the quilt.
I'm glad Diane loves her quilt and will enjoy it.
A fabulous job Lynne, and a lovely idea that Mr Karate and Rubylocks created an album of photos of the quilt.

I can hear the joy in those words, the love wrapped up in every stitch, and this is what giving is all about. And to receive is as wonderful as to give.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful gift. We hope it helps her heal.
ReplyDeleteTHIS is why we make and share and give quilts ...
ReplyDeleteThings like that increase the SLU's of the entire world.
