Another one being the 3rd quilt on the ladder :) Ahhhhhh, I adore this one ... it is truly "special." Ya see, Gene's Great Grandmother made it. I, of course, never knew her; but have heard many stories through the years about "Muddy!"
The kids in the family ... my 58 year old hubby and his siblings ... weren't overly fond of her name ; but their thoughts on that subject softened when Mr. Gene's little sister, Tracey, decided to have her children call our Micki "Muddy ." Her first child, Gracie, was actually born on Micki's Birthday; and from that day forward, all the "little one's " in the family (her Cousins) always called her Muddy :)
You wouldn't believe how incredibly soft it is!!!!!!!! It is sooooooo obvious that it was snuggled by many folks along the way ... Mr. Gene wanting to be one of 'em ... the key word being "wanting!" (LOL).
I like thinking about both of our "Muddy's" enjoying time together in Heaven :)
"Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." (Colossians 3:12-14)
