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! -
Cy, I am sitting here with tears in my eyes as well. How touching of your DH to write! We love you and want you to wrap yourself in all of our hugs!
Trixiegram: I am also very happy that you received your Afghan! Hope the warmth from our hearts and the hugs in the afghan bring you comfort.
Hugs,
Denise -

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.
