I made this quilt a while back and decided to give it to my Mother In Law, 84yr.s young when one of her Son's passed away 4-27-2010.
I talked to her on the phone yesterday and she told me again how much she loved it and was the prettiest quilt she had ever seen, has told me that many,many times before. She says she says thank you to me every morning when she makes her bed. Wanted me to know how much she appreciates it.

This is the quilt

How nice that you could give her a gift that brings her such happiness. Can you show more of a close-up of the quilt? Is that your MIL holding it?

What a beautiful quilt, for a lovely lady. I'm so glad she is uses it, so many pack them away never to be seen again.

That is me in the picture, hopefully I don't look 20 yr.s older than I am.
For some reason the pics of that quilt were that size.

The biggest picture I have.
