Merry Christmas to you.

What a treasure you received.

I have 3 unfinished quilt tops, one of which appears to be made of worn men's shirts. The patterns/fabric are what you would associate with a man's shirt, anyway.

We gave our daughter a cedar lined ‘hope’ chest for her high school graduation. It was important at the time, but even moreso now, I
appreciate the ‘generational’ lasting quality of the gift.

I have a serious detachment from material things, but hearing other’s stories helps me to understand the value of çherished family heirlooms.

Thank you sir for your willingness to open up and share your delight gift with us, and allowing us to share in that blessing.

Blessings and mercy to you and your family in the coming New Year.

IMO...there's a huge difference between just material things...and family heirlooms. :)

Hope your Christmas was wonderful!!
