When your customer admits to you that she is not a huge fan of quilts but LOVES the custom t-shirt quilt and states that "not all quilts are equal" and "this one is exceptional, and I love every detail of it! From the red, to the music note fabric and muted colors of the leaves in between the shirts"... well, I was deeply touched and it made my heart sing... and may have needed a tissue to wipe a tear away as she pulled out of the driveway.

I don't often get to see the reaction of a customer when they see their quilt for the first time.
This one was extra special!
Have I ever mentioned that I love being able to preserve the memories of another's life for them???
Whether it is a quilt or an heirloom gift like a memory bear or something entirely different, it doesn't really matter.
Leaving a legacy for others to recall loved ones or special moments is a part of my love language.
Everyone has a love language... what is yours?
Keep piecing,
