Car Quilt Because You Asked

 I just posted info about my Asilomar workshop but many of you have asked about the car quilt you helped make. I could hardly get it away from my husband to get a photo but here is the quilt and here and some of the blocks before we made the quilt (my friend Connie and I put it together and Kathy Woods quilted it.
 Here are three wild and crazy guys under the quilt...Mark is under this every single day...he loves it! And we all do too. Thank you for your kindness. Also I want to say "thank you" to many of you who have kept us in mind and send postcards, greeting cards, little surprises and some money too. Susan S. thank you sincerely for your gift at Asilomar. Mark is having trouble with our many stairs now and so we are getting a bathroom done next to his man cave which will now become his bedroom as it is on the floor with no stairs. We want him comfy and cozy and happy. It is a tough time for us but we do thank you all for your lovely care and love you have sent and for your prayers as we make this difficult journey.

  7. Love the quilt. Mary Lou, my husband just passed away so I know what you are going through. I cannot recommend Hospice enough. We were not ready for it but jumped in and never had a regret. When you reach that point, life gets much simpler. It is all about comfort care and support. Contact me at mjquilts1@gmail.com if you have any questions. Hugs, MaryJo
