That is beautiful. She will be so proud. Did you do hand quilting? Looks like you did and what a great job. Beautiful colors she used.

Gorgeous! I love the way you did your borders!

I'm starting on my 6th flower and your quilt gives me a lot of inspiration!

Thanks for sharing!

yes, i hand quilted it. My aunt pieced the center in the 50s or 60s...and i added the border in 2010. Gotta love those reproduction fabrics!

She told me once that it is an honor for her to look at a quilt and know that we worked on it together.
