Memory Quilt

My sister surprised me with this beautiful quilt created out of my Dad's Dickie coveralls. Wow, what an awesome gift. My favorite was the red. Me and mom talked him into getting them and when they came in he was not to sure about wearing them. I loved them on him and they looked great. We laughed and said that they were his Santa coveralls. One Christmas he and mom met Michael in Palestine to eat and Dad wore them, Michael really had fun teasing him about them. So the red ones were very special to me and now a piece of those memories will be with me always. I would have never thought about having something like this made and I am so glad that Stacye did. I will cherish it always and pass it down for generations. Thank you sis.
