This wonderful quilt is what's known as a Hug Quilt. It was made by a group of lovely ladies who belong to the RCTQ group on the Internet who felt I needed a hug. I am recuperating from cancer surgery and am not having an easy time of it. Marilyn Sobel (Nurse Ratched) organized the group, gave them deadlines for completion of blocks, then put them together. Everyone's efforts resulted in this beauty and I wish to thank them all.
