Dana's Quilt

We finally presented the quilt to Dana last week.  Trying to keep the presentation a surprise was a task in itself, but we pulled it off.  She was so surprised and humbled by the experience.  She went over every single block and talked about it's meaning to her.  She shared stories about her family and colleagues and her dog Elvis who had just passed on.  To top it off we had cupcakes and lemonade.  It was a perfect day and most importantly Dana was so happy!   Here are pictures of Dana's Quilt.  I had to make the photo a little smaller to post the whole picture, but you can click on it to expand it and see more of the detail.
