A bit of comfort

     Almost always, my comfort quilts go to someone I don't know, or someone gives me a recommendation and then I ask them to give the quilt package. However, this time, my dear sister-in-law has been diagnosed with endometrial cancer. After a successful surgery to remove the tumor and surrounding tissue, it was determined that the cancer cells are extremely aggressive. In order to halt any of them, she is undergoing chemo that started on Wednesday. My husband and I took her a quilt package which she already used this week. Our prayer is that the chemo destroys any cells left and doesn't make her really ill. She will loose her wonderful red curly hair. Just heart wrenching. I showed this quilt when I finished it a while back, but now it is washed and dried so it shows off the quilting. The name is Little Boxes and it was a free pattern from jellyrollfabric.net.

Prayers for your SIL, and all she must go thru. Your comfort quilt will do just that. It is perfect for that.

A nice, cheery quilt for her during chemo. A lady at quilt camp this weekend was talking about her daughter being diagnosed with the same cancer, and going thru chemo. Praying for your SIL's return to health.
