    Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been on lately but I have been working feverishly to finish my Mom's quilt. She is in a nursing home with Alzheimer's and I wanted to get it done as fast as I could because you just never know how long they have. Anyway, I am back and really missed all of your great comments, suggestions and pictures of the wonderful WIP's!
    Now that I can slow down a bit and have nothing in the works for anyone else, maybe I can concentrate on making things I have been wanting to make for a long time!

    That's an awesome quilt. I'm sure it will comfort your mother. The love in it shows.

    Wonderful quilt for your mom...I hope she gets much comfort from it...my dad has Alzheimer's...it is a tough disease...especially I think for the caretakers...so hard to watch them decline.
