| Awesome! You've probably answered this before, but how long now has it taken you to complete this? Tons of hours I'm sure! I'm sure you will hear back from someone soon. Smiles...Gin | |

| It took me about 8 months, no wait, more like 10 but I went on hiatus over the Holidays. I can tell you one thing about this experience... I don't want to look at another 1 inch square of fabric again... well, at least for a little while anyway. Hmm who should be the next project? |

| Hi Everyone!
I just wanted to give you the update about the quilt I made of Michael Landon. I did send it to the Landon Family and received a little plant and card from Cindy. She stated in her letter that they would keep it as a family heirloom or donate it to a charity. She also said that they would let me know what was decided either way. What more could I ask for?
My only problem is now worrying about taking care of this plant. I do not have a green thumb. In fact, I've been known to make any plant wilt at the sight of my presence. It's a thirsty little bugger that's for sure, but it is getting new growth and I hope to see blooms soon. It was such a thoughtful gesture on Cindy's part and I'm going to do my best to keep it healthy.
Again, I thank all who made comments and encouraged me on this project. I also thank the Landonlegacy.com site for inspiring me to start the quilt in the first place. Michael was such a talented man and I just wanted the family to know that I recognized all that he did beyond just the acting on screen. |

| How sweet, to have sent you a plant and card! And I can very much relate to not having a green thumb. I have two black thumbs, as a matter of fact. Plants shiver and quake when my shadow passes them. The quilt was such an amazing undertaking. Thank you for sharing your progress with us, and letting us join in on the fun of seeing it come together! You'll let us know what they decide to do with the quilt, won't you? | |

| Very cool, indeed!
How does one go about writing Cindy? I would love to tell her just how much he meant to me and my family. |

| Where is there a picture of it? I would love to see it. Spring is finally here, the lovely pink blooms on the "spray" tree outside my window are gone leaving a beautiful willow. | |

| That is so wonderful! I am glad that the quilt is with his family. You did such an amazing job on it!! That was such a thoughtful gesture of Cindy to send you the plant. I too would want to try my best to keep it alive. I don't have the best history with taking care of plants either. | |
