    It is so hard for a lady to lose her Mom. There is just such a connection with our Mom's. I thought I was a orphan when mine died, even through, I still have my two sisters.

    My deepest sympathy. Those quilts will be such a special connection.

    Maria I am so sorry to hear your beloved mother passed away so young. Unfortunately I know that pain too as my mother passed away 6 years ago this month at the young age of 67. My then 17 year old daughter had made a quilt together with me as my mom when she was diagnosed. After she was gone it went to my daughter. She cherises it. Thank you for your story and inspiring and encouraging us to make quilts. )))))))Quilty Hugs((((((((((

    Condolences from Texas. My sister, Mother and I made a pink and burgundy log cabin quilt before my mother passed away. We had the casket draped with the quilt during the funeral, and my sister said for me to take it afterward! I was so blessed to have a wonderful Mother and Sister, who has passed away now, to quilt with and we learned from each other.

    ...Don't let perfection rob you of making quilts for those you love![/quote]
    One of the main reasons I make quilts is that when I am gone...they can remember me......

    So sorry about the passing of your Mother: It is hard to have them leave us when we think otherwise: Wonderful that you and your sister can enjoy and love the quilts: Blessings to you and your family:
