Those quilts are absolutely gorgeous. I can't imagine how long it took to do the one on the top. Thank you for sharing and for sharing your story. My mom has been gone now 16 years and I still have the quilt I made with all of her old clothes, I just made patchwork out of them but it sits on top of my childhood hopechest for my daughter someday. I know she will appreciate it so much, she was l6 when her nana died.
