Glojean, your little quilts with your mother's embroidery are so special. Congratulations on your wonderful finishes. Toot, Toot! I think these might just be our last UFO's for 2016.

When I looked through one of my decorative boxes that holds a lot of different projects to be finished, lo and behold, I discovered the embroidery! This was the weekend before Christmas so I had to work fast - put a simple border on all three and quilted them, finishing them in time for
Christmas. My nieces were thrilled to receive something lovingly stitched by their beloved Grandma and finished by their Auntie. Three more UFO's off my long list.:-)
