I am very blessed. I have many quilts My Mother made for me. 2 stand out, they are on the twin beds in our guest room. 1 is embroidried baskets, it was the first one. When we decided on twin beds, I said to my Mother,"wouldn't it be pretty to have a different quilt made with the same fabrics?". She said yes and I even have one in mind. When she brought it, I was speechless. It was the same fabrics as the 1st one, but it was ladies embroidried and my husbands Mother's hankies for their skirts. They are really beautiful and they were made with fabric from Walmart. They are treasures. There are more.....as I said I am blessed...in many ways.....mostly because she is 81yrs young and still with me. My time will come, but I will have so much of my Mother with me. Really, it isn't the things we have.....it is the people around us. Don't miss the blessings and miracles around us everyday. Be blessed.
