Within an 18 month period Donna has experienced the loss of 5 close family members. Not to mention dear friends who are not mentioned among these 5. She lost her Father in law, then just a few months later she lost her adult daughter Desi, within 5 months she lost her mother. Shortly after that one of the family dogs died, Then just last month her father passed away. That is a lot of grieving for one person to handle in such a short span of time. And if grief isn't enough, there is all the care and dedication to them before their passing. I have wanted to do something special for Donna for a long time. Especially since the death of her daughter. Donna loves the U of U football team and has collected many T shirts over the years. She recently gave some of her old ones to me, her sister. I decided then that she needed a U of U T-shirt quilt . I hope that this quilt will bring some joy back into her life. I hope she takes it to every game and feels the love of so many who ache for her losses.

Coming from a family of rabid Utah fans, I know how this unique quilt will be treasured for years to come. There is sister love, which is really powerful, in the stitches...
