Comfort Quilt #1






 This is the first quilt top for Jesse's girls, I'm hoping to find a navy for the border.

Here is one of the pockets from her Daddy's shirts....




























Keep them in your prayers, please. Jesse died from a motorcycle accident. This will be the 
first Christmas without their Daddy.

    You are so kind to make comfort quilts for that family. I'm sure this will mean a great deal to them...especially to have a quilt made from personal items of Jesse. I will pray for them as Christmas is a very hard time to be without those we love.

    Oh, Pokey, I am sure the girls will be comforted snuggling in their pretty quilt made by you. It will be a difficult Christmas for them and your sweet gesture will certainly help. God bless them.

    It will be a tough one for them. Poor dears. The quilts will be cherished. Are you going to tuck something into the pocket?

    Oh Pokey - I cannot even SEE what I'm typing due to tears. So sad for them to be without their Daddy. Seeing the pocket finished me off - what a beautiful idea!

    I think an outside the box colour for the border would pop this beauty! A very special quilt as noted by others.
    Merry Christmas.
