I made this Quilt for my cousin hwo I spent a lot of weekends and summers with when I was very young. But after her parents divorsed I lost her. Efter bean separat for almost 33 years I found her on Facebook 6 month ago.

This dog is her beloved heart and her name is Blomma (Flower).

I wanted to express for my cousin Ingela how much I missed her and how much she ment to me by making this wallquilt for her.

She loves it and she almost started cry when I gave it to her. She expressed that this is the most beautiful thing some one ever done for her and given to her.

Love

Wonderful quilt -- you've captured the dog's personality so well! Your cousin will treasure this.

What a touching story. Such a beautiful gift for your cousin.
Your art is beautiful. Having done a much loved dog portrait for my husband's 70th birthday, I know how much work goes into it and how much the recipient cherishes it
