My Mom (an alternation lady her whole life) appliqued and hand quilted these blocks when her first great grandchild was born. Mom died 6 years ago and never finished the quilt. I finally was emotionally ready 3 months ago to pick up these precious blocks, put them together, piece the border, and finish hand quilting it. I wanted the quilt to be special so on each corner block is machine embroidered the name of my Mom, me, my daughter and my granddaughter. That baby is now 8 and this quilt was her birthday gift last Saturday.
Mom, I hope I made you proud.
