Yesterday I said goodbye to my beautiful Grammie. She would have been 94 this June. I have been going to visit her every week for the past two years. We have had so many fun times. Grammie would come out with the funniest comments. She was a very independent woman, an entrepreneur most of her life.
It was because of my Grandmother that I designed the "Lovie Lap Quilt". She would rub her hands together or sit on them because they were cold. So I designed the lap quilt with a through pocket to keep her hands warm and I lined it in flannel. She would take her lap quilt in the car with us when we went out to lunch. She always told me how warm it kept her hands.
A few months ago I was able to express my thanks to Grammie for helping me start my own business with the "Lovie Lap Quilts" all because of her. I was glad she understood what that meant to me.
Although it is hard to say goodbye, my Grandmother has had a new birth. She is on to her next adventure. I will miss her but believe we will be together again someday in heaven. Thank you, Grammie.
