Completed Sentimental Quilt Top
Hi, everyone!
I have a finished quilt top that my mom did before she passed away. I don't know what to do with it! It's a Cal King size. Right now it's folded in my closet. It's too big to hang up, I don't want to give it away, and the colors aren't something I would have picked.
I always feel close to her when I sew. Hmmm. Maybe make another quilt "top" for the back?
I think I just answered my own question. Haha. Thanks!

Thanks for the enthusiasm! Hmmm... seams. Yes. I was thinking it would be heavy, but I didn't think about the seams. Maybe a pieced back instead of a full quilt. I think I'll use a side of a big white duvet I have. Maybe some applique instead? Will definitely post pics.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

A reversible quilt....sure! I've done this before, not on so grand a scale, but still...
You'll love it and feel like your mom is hugging you each time you use it.
