In Memory

I am cheating a little bit on this challenge. I will be using a previous post. I haven't participated to the Heart2Heart challenge in a while as things had taken a crazy turn in my life.

My father in law was diagnosed with lung cancer, then withing days we discovered that it was in the spine and hip then a few more days it was in the neck and brain... I suspect they quit looking after that. Within a month of the initial news we lost him. He was a farmer and we are still struggling a little keeping things afloat on the family farm, so scrapbook time is still hard to find.


But although I had absolutly no time to participate with the challenge; I did miss them. The previous post was a card I had made for my father in law while he was in the hospital. It is using the paper piecing technique. Which tends to be a technique i use again and again.
