Bela is a sweet 16 year old girl who was born with heart problems. She has had many heart surgeries throughout her life. Finally, her heart was failing really badly and she had to go to the hospital to wait for a new heart. She had been in the hospital for a month when a heart was made available! My friend Nedra had made her a blue heart quilt a year ago, because blue is Bela's favorite color.
Bela is home from the hospital now and working on getting stronger every day. Nedra had the idea of making a heart quilt to celebrate Bela's new heart. Some of us got together and sewed the heart blocks and nine patches for a new quilt.
Nedra made us a beautiful and delicious lunch. Here we all are, holding some blocks.
Nedra sewed the blocks together, Terri machine quilted it, and Nedra bound the quilt.
It feels wonderful to do something like this for someone ❤️
