My mother was 97 when she passed away a year ago. She made many quilts beautiful ones of course.Her only regret she
never counted how many made and so many that she gave away.
I quilted a nine patch when I was nine and she joined it and the year before she passed repaired it for me.
Just wanted to share that and I am new to your site.

Hi and welcome from Alaska. I have lost count and forgot most of the ones I did and I have not been quilting that long. They say to journal--who has time for that?

Hi and welcome, I too have lost count of the many quilts that I have given away. I only have 1 in my home that I have kept for myself but that is going to change very soon.
