Remembrance Quilt #6

Today I picked up these shirts from the assisted living center where the widow lives. I so enjoyed getting to visit with her and the other three folks there that I knew. This couple had been married for 73 years. She was 16 and he was 17 when they married. They went to school and church together and started dating when they each had lead roles in their school's operetta. She really misses him and is so excited about the quilt. This is why I do this. You can't imagine the joy I get when I make one of these and it means so much to the recipient. Now to decide what pattern......
