I finished up my first real "quilt" over the weekend. It's a rag quilt for my MIL and it's a way of us telling her how proud of her we are for fighting so hard to overcome cancer. We found a year and a half ago that she has cancer in her jaw. She's had four major surgeries to remove it (resulting in the partial removal of her lower jaw), chemo, and radiation. She's a fighter and we're so very proud of her. Her birthday is May 5th and with Mother's Day right around the corner, Hubby and I thought it would be an awesome gift!

I made it out of flannel for the front and back with no batting in between. I think it's the perfect weight and it ragged beautifully! I did blocks with the awareness ribbons from a design I found on Etsy and the rest of them are from Embroidery Library.
Thanks for looking
