This quilt is a bit controversial. I made this one for my
brother-in-law from my mother-in-laws clothes. I have also incorporated some of
his favourite blanket and some doleys. My mother-in-law was the queen of
doleys. Most people have told me they like the idea, however, I have been told
by one friend that this is a very morbid idea. I hope my BIL likes it and appreciates
the sentiment behind it.

She brightens life for a lovely cousin.....
...yes, that's what our dear busy Beebee did with this lovely new effort (of course another first one in this pattern....)
She made this quilt for a cousin who has a hard time adjusting to her husband passing away and I'm sure this will come as a blessing to her and every time she snuggles in it, it will feel like a hug from Di.

For a dear 89 years old lady
Elfi made this lap quilt for a friend who's still busy helping others, so here goes a little blessing for her!!!
A WOW quilt made of prize ribbons
Maria made this for her son Chris out of most of his prize ribbons, they didn't all fit into it though....
DiDi had some more in hiding!!!
Here are a couple more children's comforter quilt for charity, one is a fairy 4patch and the other a flower 9patch. Some girl will just love it!!!
A travelling bag!!!
Here is a bag that was made for a friend of DiDi's. It's quite large but she wants to use it for travelling around, to put all her stuff and spare clothes, etc in it. Well who's no to say that we can't start a new fashion for bags to use instead of a suitcase.
That's the back of it

She's been at it again......
....our busy bee DiDi....(should be called BeeBee....) another one of her first ones...???
No, this time she wants to bless her cousin who's husband has got dementia. She's caring for him but is now herself in the early stages of Parkinson's. Since she's the most caring and good hearted lady, DiDi thought she'd make something nice for her.
