To be honest, I think scrap qults have far more character than the ones made from carefully chosen and expensively bought fabrics (though some of those are very beautiful of course). After my husband died, my daughter no.4 made me a beautiful quilt from her dad's old winter shirts - all warm checks and tartans. That's a lovely quilt, and of course very warm.Mary in Bathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00821979511883716993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-46322547902961661012013-10-03T19:41:19.696+01:002013-10-03T19:41:19.696+01:00Beautiful quilt Ilona.Beautiful quilt Ilona.Campfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573797205145907726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-79589880926552827972013-10-03T18:37:20.967+01:002013-10-03T18:37:20.967+01:00The quilt is looking great.

We used this a couple of years ago and although the suggested donation is £90 or £135 for a couple this year, we gave what we could afford, which was £40 for the two of us. I was worried that the solicitor would sneer at us for making such a small (to her, maybe) donation but no, she was gracious and thankful. Mind you; she did know by then our financial situation!Attilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15916442932314835859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-16144851390070883342013-10-03T17:17:08.561+01:002013-10-03T17:17:08.561+01:00I love that quilt.

I realized a few months ago that two of the beneficiaries on my life insurance need replacing; one an animal shelter no longer in existence, and the other a friend who has passed away. Thank you for reminding me that I still haven't done the necessary paperwork to update the policy. I won't be leaving much in the way of money, but I'd at least like it to go to the charities I choose, rather than to wherever the law says it must if I haven't bothered making proper arrangements!Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-24417227546026002852013-10-03T16:59:45.602+01:002013-10-03T16:59:45.602+01:00Love the patchwork.
