I wrote about the quilts I have made and who for. Reading the one about loosing her mother. I know that is why I have been sewing and sewing. I lost my husband this July due to cancer. I sewed alot while he was in the hospital and recuperating and now I'm finishing things. I think it is, I need to finish what I have started, like I need to finish to go on. This may not make sense to anyone but it is the only way I can express it. Sorry about your mom and take care. I guess we all deal with things differently but quilting has been a god send for me.
