    Hi this is Scott, Cheryl's husband. Thank you for caring so much about the wellfair of my wife. You made her cry, and that's a good thing, at least in this situation. Cheryl needs, and I appreciate the support that you are giving her. Again, thank you and the quilts beautiful!

    I walked in the door and saw the box and started crying before I even opend the box. And kept saying "oh no they didn't" over and over. Scott didn't understand what I was babbeling about, until I opened it. You made me cry something I have had a lot of difficulty doing. It's gorgeous! I 've had trouble putting it down since I pulled it out of the box. In fact Scott took it away from me so I would try to eat. He wanted to know if he could talk to you so I let him get on here just before me.

    I am going to take it with me Friday and will insist they let me keep it with me during the biopsy cause I want to feel all you love and warmth wrapped around me!
    I keep running my fingers over the sticthes think how is this one done and who's hands and heart pour into this stitch. I know all your hands,hearts and love were poured into them! I'm going to make a special book to put the note into as well. I am flabberghasted! and at a loss for words! Except, I LOVE YOU ALL!

    Liz, I forgot to tell you I also received your squares...your squares are pretty and some of them have already been incorporated in the current afghan.

    I like having squares from everyone to put in every afghan. I know Vickie feels the same as I do....it is a great feeling to be surrounded by so much love.

    I was working on an afghan today while waiting the 3 hours for my car to be repaired grrrrr.....anyway, I received so many compliments...all of your work is just wonderful.

    Sheri, I received your beautiful squares today.

    I will be going to San Antonio with DH on a business trip....I will crochet and rest the entire time!!!!!!!!! I can't believe I am actually taking time off of work...I want to DO NOTHING (except crochet) for a few days.
    Hugs, Madison
