My mother quilted some but did hand work much more. When she was in her late 80's and I could see she was not crocheting as much as she used too. I purchased baby yarn and told her to just crochet baby quilts any style any color. she died at 92. I kept all the baby blankets and when ever there was a baby shower for a new arrival, I would wrap one up and give the gift of love from their grandma(great grandma-great great grandma) The tears flowed and smiles were seen. But most of all no one cared about the color or size Just the sentiment. I still have a couple left and these will be for the great great grandchildren.
