My Mother
Me
My Daughter
My Granddaughter
I hope my granddaughter will cherish it.
What a neat idea and to put names on the quilt will make it even more special...very creative of you.
I bet while working on a quilt that your moms hands had already touch was something you could never describe to anyone....cherish those memories.
