The Quilt

There are many things that I will eventually put in this section, but I am going to start with a quilt made out of some of Connie’s blouses. One of my friends that I made after losing Connie who also had lost her spouse had some things made out of her husband’s shirts, by her niece. Her niece (Sue) offered to make a quilt out of Connie’s blouses. She did a wonderful job and here are some pictures.

Whenever, I am feeling alone, worried, or abandoned, I will wrap this quilt around me. Feeling Connie’s love for me as I enclose and hug myself in this quilt. It will bring me peace, comfort, wonderful memories but most of all it this quilt will reassure me that all will be well and Connie is looking out for me.
