I LOVE memories of my Grandma Beardall!!!

I miss my Grandma.

She passed away a few years ago, at age 98.

She was such an amazing woman.

This is one of my most prized possessions.

My grandma gave me a bag full of pieced together material.

It is to a pattern that I believe is called 'Wedding ring' or something like that.

She had a big bunch of them put together.

Some still pinned together.

Some just separate pieces.

And she had a little shape cut out of an old envelope.

That is SO my Grandma to just use whatever was lying around.

Anyway.

A few years back,my Grandma became bed-ridden.

I wanted to do something for her.

So I made this little 'place mat' thing to go on the table by the side of her bed.

I loved giving her a little piece of what she had given me.

After she passed away, my Mom gave it back to me.

Now it lays on my night stand next to my bed.

I want so badly to turn the rest into a quilt.

But I have had trouble finding the pattern for it.

If anyone can help with that, I would be SO happy!!!

Also, included in the bag of stuff, was this note.

And I think it is the best part.

My sweet Grandmas hand writing.

I know that this wasn't just given to me to get out of the way.

My Grandma WANTED me to have these.

And I treasure it!!!

I only kinda wish it said KIMI...cause that's what she called me!!!
