was mine. So when I came home Meg phoned me and said she had sent a messsage so I picked up the phone and guess what, there on the phone was a picture of my Dad.
You see I couldn’t get my printer to put his picture onto the special fabric you use for this sort of thing. I had sent a picture to her earlier in the day and didn’t know she was going to do it that quick. My problem was that I have a laser printer and you need an Inkjet.
Well, you can imagine my excitement at seeing Dad's face there as big as life. This will now be going into my Memory quilt.
NOW - I want to thank, in particular, DeVon, as she had sent me some of this printing fabric and I just couldn’t get it to work.
Thanks to all of you Cuties you are such a wonderful caring bunch. Love and blessings Chris
After reading Miss Lillian's post I knew I just had to share this here.

Chris, how wonderful - so you sent a picture and the fabric that DeVon sent you to Meg and she was able to print it off for you? How wonderful - that means that your quilt will be extra special - with some CUTE family love included. Hehehe! We have a great group of CUTE family members here, don't we? So sorry you were feeling down - hope you are not any more.
1 comment
Thanks Shirlene - no the fabric that DeVon sent I couldn't use. Meganne had some that she could use. But, you are still correct in that the CUTE family are involved in it.
Thanks for the wishes - it's only been 2 days since Bella died and I still hurt, but I know you all are thinking of me and that makes my heart light. Love Chris

Chris this is wonderful that Meganne could bring some sunshine to you. I know your quilt will be very special and precious cause of all the loving memories of your dad.
My dad has had his 30th day of death in march and I always think what a pity that he never had the chance to see neither me grow up nor his grandchildren.
Greetings, Bettina

I'm so sorry to read that your Dad whilst you were so young Bettina. Thanks for taking the time to comment. I hope the quilt for Mum will remind her of Dad. I've put on it all the things he loved and now can't wait to put his picture on there. Love Chris

Thanks Juanita, you are right everyone is really great on here. I can't wait to finish this off too. Dad's birthday was 23rd July and I wanted to have it finished by then. I have a few other things in the pipeline at the moment and as soon as I can I'll finish it. Love and blessings Chris
