It's lovely and I'm sure your MIL will love it! I've seen those on the blog and would like to make 1 one day. I think about all the beautiful handkerchiefs we used to give my grandmother when I was a girl. She wouldn't use them and said she was saving them for a special occasion. I remember her taking some of them out of hiding one day and some had dry rotted! Made me know that I will use EVERYTHING I own. Wish I had some of those now to make a quilt as beautiful as yours!
