I'm so sorry for your loss. ((Hugs))

I am so very sorry for your loss.

Sweet memories! It is nice when quilts that you have made are cherished!

I, too, am sorry for your loss. Quilts are such wonderful memories and treasures. I am happy that you and your sister receive comfort from the quilts you made. God bless.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my mother this past March so know what you're going through.

That is sad. Just because you make quilts does not mean you want one of hers. We seem to make quilts for other people but not for our self. Why is this?

My deepest sympathy
I too felt like an orphan even if I was in my fifties... a parent is a parent no matter what age we are.
nice to have the quilt for comfort moment!

I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. You must be around my daughter's age. I would be so sad to leave her so soon. I know your mother would have stayed with you if she could have. It seems you were such a wonderful daughter to be with her and share her last days.

I will pray for your strength. I know your Mother would want you to think of the happy times you spent together. God Bless you.

I'm sooo sorry to hear of your loss. You are exactly right though, make those quilts, runners etc for your loved ones. They love and appreciate it! My fil recently passed and I'll be getting the items that I've made him back, sort of a bittersweet thing.

Sorry about your loss.

I am so so sorry for the loss of your Mother :(
(I lost mine in February)
((((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))))))))))

So sorry for the loss of your mother.
I'm glad you and your sister are on good terms and that she appreciates quilts.
Happy quilting.

My sincere condoleances!

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. you and your family are in my prayers.

So sorry for you loss. But glad you found the quilts, I know they mean a lot to your sister and you. Just remember your mom is in a better place with no pain and suffering.

So well said Shirl, my sentiments exactly.

I am sorry for your loss. But you are absolutely right about not letting perfectionism keep you from quilting for your loved ones. Quilting is another way women nurture.

I have a fleece/flannel throw I made for my husband during his last months of life. It is nothing fancy, just a piece of fleece with a piece of flannel hand-tied together and fringed around the outside edges. My grandchildren spent many nights cuddled in that throw after he passed. I still enjoy wrapping in it while watching TV. It gives as much mental comfort as physical comfort. I am so glad you and your sister have those quilts to comfort you. My mother thought quilts were a frivolous waste of time spent. She always told me "idle hands are the devil's workshop" but she just didn't think quilting was time well spent.

Deepest sympathy for your loss, but once again, you have proven what I have said for years --a quilt is a bandaid for the soul. It can heal the deepest hurt.

So sorry for your loss. Praying that you'll feel the love of those dear ladies wrapped around you in the quilts they cherished. God bless you

I am so sorry for your loss, I lost my Mom when she was 69, it seems so young. God Bless you and your Sister, glad you had the Quilts to share and remember your Mom.

Sympathy to you on your loss. Sounds like you have wonderful memories of your mother and grandmother; and it is wonderful that your sister can share in this bond.

so ver y sorry for your loss

Condolences on the loss of your Mom. What a sweet story and a great way to remember her with gifts you gave her.

Thanks for your post on not worrying about perfection. I am making my great grandson his first quilt. He will be born this week but I'm having trouble making the points meat perfect. I have always been a perfectionist and it is driving me so crazy I was ready to toss what I have started. I'm going ahead and finishing it now with your post and just hope when it is all together it won't show so much.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom also and know how it hurts.

Condolences at this very heartbreaking time. I, too, lost my mother several years ago and understand your pain. Let your wonderful memories and the love of those dear to you sustain you.

That is a wonderful story. I'm sorry for your loss. She was much too young.

So sorry for your loss and enjoy the quilts you will now have to cuddle up in.

So sorry to hear of your loss. I am glad your sister's quilt perspective has changed and she wanted the quilt.

So sorry to hear of your loss.

So very sorry for your loss!

Please accept my sympathy in the passing of your mother... AND my thanks for so eloquently encouraging us to act now in sharing our love with family!

God bless you!

I'm so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.

sincere sympathies to you and your family on your Mum's passing..
May the quilts bring back wonderful memories for you both!

So very sad to hear about your mum. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Quilts are so much more than just Layers of fabric and batting material..and...they always will be:)

Prayers for peace & comfort so sorry to learn about your Mother.
Sew happy you have a special quilt to wrap yourself in remember the love you two share.

Wrap yourselves in prayer and love...my condolences

Wondering if you could get photos of those quilts the sisters have and make yourself a quilt using the photos and maybe colors of fabric your mother loved. So sorry they didn't share. Maybe you can make lemonade out of lemons. Hugs,
