I think it's great that you passed the blocks on to someone else. The quilt finally got made. I like to think it was meant to be.Jenhttp://www.whenpigsflyblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-88307058766253004452012-06-05T13:37:06.902-05:002012-06-05T13:37:06.902-05:00She made a lovely baby quilt with them!She made a lovely baby quilt with them!A Colorful Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890388727784255219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-71630628889220220842012-06-04T07:16:07.260-05:002012-06-04T07:16:07.260-05:00I am holding on to so many things like that (actua...I am holding on to so many things like that (actually a few boxes of quilt blocks). I will never get around to finishing the projects started one, two or three generations ago. One box is half finished twin size quilts my great grandmother started for my mother and her sister when they were small. My aunt would be 80 now and my mother, too. Will I even finish them for my grandchildren.<br /><br />First, I applaud you letting go. Second, you sent them to the perfect home. Third, the receipent will greatly value and appreciate the blocks and how lovely that you have the photo as a rememberance!Miss Merryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10691152819794851137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-91477433198257086492012-06-03T23:16:39.499-05:002012-06-03T23:16:39.499-05:00OMG, she turned the beautiful blocks into a vintag...OMG, she turned the beautiful blocks into a vintage work of art.Oakland Daily Photohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352365270299187377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-25937784227093717952012-06-03T22:16:01.915-05:002012-06-03T22:16:01.915-05:00Wow that is beautiful!!! yup...
