My condolences on the loss of your mother.

Think about your mom and make a list of all the things you remember that she loved. I would probably try to include favorite hobbies, flowers, foods, and vacation spots. There are tons of novelty fabrics available so it shouldn't be too hard to find plenty of great fabrics. (Well, it could be hard on the pocketbook.)

What will you do with this quilt? Will it be a comfort quilt for you, or a wall quilt? Please post your progress. This sounds like a very comforting project to work through your sorrow. Bless you.
