Quilts

I have always wanted a hand made real quilt. I didn't get one for my weeding or graduation. And since I had no babies (except Sue and Mungo) none from that. SO I was thrilled to see all the time and effort put into this beautiful quilt made for me by my amazing talented friend. Her name is Jani. She can do everything. It has squares from some of my YW and leaders I served with from 2003 - 2007. It made me cry and feel so happy. It has these really cute bright colors on the back and tons of shimmer colors on the front with cute stitching. The memories on the squares will keep my warm inside and out for years to come as I look back at my service in the Riverbend YW. My new calling is keeping me very busy but I love being able to help and be with the girls. Jani made up the pattern for me so it would be special. She is wonderful and really made me feel loved. What a wonderful unexpected beautiful surprise. In the photos are my old Bishop his wife Jani and many leaders and girls I have been loving.
