Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt chocolate over double boiler and reserve. Cream butter and sugar together until smooth in a mixer.

Kathleen Coyle of Churchville, PA, visits family at
Miromar a few times a year. You will find Kathleen
sitting by the pool quilting. Kathleen says every
quilt has a story and this is the story of the quilt that
she has been working on for the past four years.
While visiting her son-in-law’s mother, Debbie
Morton, Kathleen was asked if she could give
her some advice on an incomplete quilt Debbie’s
mother had worked on for ten years before she died. Kathleen was shown a
magnificent piece of artwork. After she caught her breath from viewing this
treasure, Kathleen said: “If you trust me, I will finish it for you.” She felt this
quilt was the finest piece of artwork that she had ever seen and was honored to
work on it for the family. Kathleen has been quilting for 25 years. Although she
never met the quilt’s originator, Kathleen said the precise stitching taught her
to be a better quilter. “All I had to do was follow her lead. This is a magnificent
quilt that should be cherished by the family for generations to come.” Now
complete, it will be returned to the Morton family.
