    So I wondered and read and watched YouTube, and decided something different than what she started was a good suggestion. Since I'm horrible at straight lines, I decided to try feathers (the devil I didn't know was more attractive than the one I did know). My feathers are bad, but I had to start somewhere, and Mom is very forgiving. So here are some pics of the finished quilt. I did finish that bit of hand quilting in the smashing myself, and I am happier with it than I am the machine quilting.

    This is her signature block. She worked on it in 1980 and 1981

    Thanks for the suggestions and thanks for looking,
