I'm still catching up.
It's been 2 months since my step-dad passed away. After a long, courageous battle with cancer, he died at home, under the quilt I made him. I put it together in just a few weeks after he cancer returned. While a simple pattern, it has a variety of fabrics that represented his favorite things such as University of Kentucky, Nascar, Jack Daniels and his beloved chihuahua Peanut. I wanted him to remember that I was with him, even when I wasn't and hoped the quilt would be a replacement.
I'm glad he enjoyed the quilt for as long as he did and now my mom has it as part of her many memories of him.
