thanks everyone. I love my mum and everyday she is with us is a blessing. she is strarting to get dementia now and forgets lots of things, she forgets that she asked a question and asks it time and time again, It can be annoying but I would rather be annoyed than not have her. she is a darling 99% of the time

it's called insomnia, I sleep for a couple of hours then wake up to a call of nature and start quilting till I am ready for bed again

Pam Pollock 07-28-2010 08:09 AM

Wow love your lap quilt. That is awesome.

Annya 07-28-2010 07:11 PM

Wow what a lovely quilt. I can see your mum really likes it. I love the pattern of the bird( I am into birds right now and flowers too) I made my mum a bag from the Japanese fabric with ibis' and mountain scenes on it and she loves it. I hope she will use it and remember that it was made with LOVE.
